I recently lost a hard drive with a lot of data on it, and am looking to re-download the files. The hard drive with firefox is intact. The files I'm looking for are from before I most recently cleared my download history. How can I view old download logs?

Any help would be appreciated.

Réiteach roghnaithe

In Firefox - { Ctrl + J } to open the Downloads window. That is the only "log" of files downloaded thru Firefox, and it only goes as far back as the last time that list was cleared, or that data was "dumped". Firefox doesn't keep an actual text-based "log" of downloads.

Go to Start then computer then your hard drive, then your user, then downloads.

Bleh, that's what I was afraid of. Thanks anyway.
