My laptop crashed and I had to have it repaired. I had school passwords saved and pages bookmarked. Is there any way for me to get those back?

That depends on what the techs did to repair your system.

It is possible your profile data is still there.

Type about:profiles<enter> in the address bar. How many profiles are listed? How many should be there? Also, open the profile folder in your file explorer.
