I had my old browser for many years before it was taken out a bad Windows/Microsoft update. I had many passwords & bookmarks that were saved on it. Is it possible to have them brought to this new download. It's been 2 or 3 days since I lost my old download, but it seems like an eternity without them.

Hi hawkese, are you signed into sync with any other device using Firefox?

What damage happen to your system? Were the program file corrupted? What about the files in your user profile?
