Note that resetting the password for the Firefox Account will remove all data stored on the Sync server because this password is used to encrypt your data before it is uploaded to the Sync server and only this password can decrypt this data.

If you uninstalled Firefox, but didn't remove the profile folder and its files then your personal data should still be there and found by Firefox if you reinstall Firefox.

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