How do I restore 'HISTORY' after reset?

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?

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

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,
