Automatic updates installed the new Quantum browser (v.57) and now I cannot export my passwords because you broke my extensions. If I try to re-install will I will lose my profile, and thus all my passwords?

This update should NOT HAVE BEEN AUTOMATICALLY INSTALLED. A radical new version that breaks thousands of extensions should NEVER have been installed without first warning the user, so that we could have backed up essential data before you broke everything..

Mozilla, you have completely failed me here.

Hello AdrienneA,

On your desktop do you see a folder called; Old Firefox?

These articles should help you recover your lost data.

No, there is no folder on my desktop. I have backed up my profile and plan to install the Extended Support Release version. Bye Bye Quantum.
