I used the 'reset' function and managed to find my bookmarks but I can't find my history. Not only the history but all my stored passwords are gone with the history. Where can I find the folder with those files? And, how do I restore them to my profile?

Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder called; Old Firefox?

Separate Security Issue: Update your Flash Player Note: Windows users should download the ActiveX for Internet Explorer. and the plugin for Plugin-based browsers (like Firefox).

Note: Windows 8 and Windows 10 have built-in flash players and Adobe will cause a conflict. Install the plugin only. Not the ActiveX.

Flash Player Version: Version 27.0.0.130

https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ Direct link scans current system and browser Note: Other software is offered in the download. <Windows Only>

https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/ Step 1: Select Operating System Step 2: Select A Version (Firefox, Win IE . . . .) Note: Other software is offered in the download. <Windows Only> +++++++++++++++++++ See if there are updates for your graphics drivers https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration

Thanks FredMcD,

At my age the time I'd have spent trying to figure it out might have left me trying to fix it from a nursing home.....

Thanks again,
