All passwords lost after update, Passwords cannot be stored
I lost my Passwords with an update some days ago (Firefox ESR 24.8.1) I cannot recover/reset the passwords on the websites.
interestingly, my signons.sqlite is 3 days older than my key3.db, so probably the key3.db was altered/removed during the update. I cannot store new passwords as well.
Of course, I can delete both files to be able to store passwords again - but the main issue is to recover the lost passwords....
Thank you

The time stamp of the key3.db file doesn't mean that much as there is other key data stored in the file.
You appear to have the LastPass 3.1.1 extension installed, so it is more likely an issue with that extension.
Does disabling this extension has any effect or did this extension updated recently?
Can you restore an older copy of the signons.sqlite and key3.db files?

Make a backup copy of the two files signons.sqlite and key3.db elsewhere before proceeding.
