Importing logins and passwords from old SSD
My old Win PC has suddenly died (burnt mobo) and I purchased a new one. System SSD from old PC works. How can I transfer logins and passwords to my new PC (just registered Mozilla acc today, so Sync option is not for me). What files, where to search (for the SSD from the old PC) and where/how to copy to a new one? I am noob here ((( Thank You very much for help.

There are two files you need to copy, key4.db and logins.json. You may have key3.db instead. Please refer to these links.

Just realized that I started FireFox from my old SSD and it does not show neither passwords nor bookmarks....How to ?
You copy the files to your new profile folder. I don't know what has happened to your old files.
