Hello all.

Had some wonky display settings (couldn't see any text on my webpages) so I did a "REFRESH FIREFOX". Display now looks great but all my saved passwords and god knows what else have disappeared. Please help.

This is the current version of the browser 89.0.1 (64-bit)

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