Make sure Firefox is closed when you replace the logins.json and key4.db files (check the task manager). Note that the logins.json and key4.db need to match to make this work as the key file (key4.db) stores the encryption key for the logins saved in logins.json.

I have done all of that I have reinstalled it and moved the key4 and login files from a backup drive and they do not show up I tried to put them in manually and they will save but as soon as I restart foxfire they are gone again

AVG security blocked the logins and passwords
