Hi!

Seems like the Synchronize forgot the passwords that I saved to it.

Here is what happened: Before reinstalling Windows I created the Firefox account to save all passwords etc. On a fresh Windows I looged to Firefox account and got all my login data etc. without problems. Then I had to reinstall Windows again but after logging in to Firefox account there was no passwords - just the favourite tabs.

Is there a way to retrieve a version from a given date?

Hey there!

I believe you can try to recover from your profiles folder. See here on how to do so: https://mzl.la/3CRmtsp

Hope it helps!

Note that Sync isn't designed to be used as a backup, but is merely meant to sync data between connected devices. Best is always to backup your personal data locally.

You can check if you have a C:\Windows.old folder with your Firefox profile data.
