My firefox crashed and my pc restarted. Now my firefox broiwser seems to have updated (version 87.0 64 Bit Wiondows10) but all bookmarks, saved login were lost in the process.

I managed to restore the bookmarks by finding my old bookmark files via %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\

I also found the old files - logins.json and key4.db files. But how do i restore them?

I basically want to restore all my lost login details. please help !!

Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder called; Old Firefox? Look inside. Look for the folder with the latest creation date.
