Hi,

I recently updated, only to find out that all my passwords had disappeared :(. I checked my profile and there were three 0Kb files: logins.json, logins.json.corrupt and logins-backup.json. cert9.db and key4.db are still there and aren't empty. I'm on Arch Linux, so no previous version as well. Is there anything I can do to restore my passwords?

If you have a logins-backup.json that contains login data then copy this file for logins.json to see if that works. Make sure to keep a backup copy of all logins files (logins-backup.json and logins.json) and key4.db. You can possibly compare logins-backup.json and logins.json.corrupt
