What do you mean reset the laptop? Sync isn't used for backup. If the new Firefox install has no data matching previous Firefox data then the sync will clear the previous sync data and there be nothing to sync back with.

Did you reset the password for the Sync account because you forgot this password?
If you reset the password for the Mozilla account because you do not remember this password, then that will remove all data stored on the Sync server because this password is used to encrypt your data locally before it is uploaded to the Sync server and only this password or a possible recovery key you created earlier can decrypt this data.
