I recently reinstalled Windows on a new hard drive. I copied my old Firefox profile from my old install, Appdata\local\mozilla\firefox\profiles. I pasted these files in the new profile created on my new Windows install. However, none of my data is being used on the new Firefox. No saved tabs, bookmarks, passwords, etc.

Am I doing something wrong? What else can I try? Thanks!

hi clif, the firefox profile data lives under C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla...

Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data
