Hi.. I was installing a new Windows system. Before the installation, I did a synchronization in my Firefox to later recover my settings using recovery keys. But after installation and login, there was no question about the keys to recover this data. How can I get my bookmarks back? I have only recover keys and the e-mail adres for this. Please somedy help me. Thank you.

You normally use the email address and the password to connect to the Sync account. If you do not remember the password then you can do a password reset and use the recovery key (there is only one long recovery key) to connect to the Sync account.
