So, I just synced my Firefox Account with my second Laptop and it Deleted all Old Passwords I had on it before. I really need these or I would have problems logging in everywhere in the Web. So I am asking you Guys, how can i get these back as fast as possible? Are they Gone Forever? I hope Not. Please Help me as soon as possible!

Make sure to keep a backup copy of key4.db and logins.json and logins-backup.json in the profile folder.

Primary location used for the main profile that keeps your personal data (Root Directory on about:profiles).

Do you still see logins with a hostname and username and password in the logins-backup.json file or do they only have "deleted":true?

I just did all you told me and i got all the Passwords, but they are not the old ones. deleted:true is nowhere to find in the logins-backup.json. should I look in the other 2 files you told me to copy?
