While trying to survive and recover from Windows Defender my opsys was "upgraded" and Firefox was destroyed. In efforts for recovery the tech advised that there would be no problem with resetting the password despite the advisory note. Now, hundreds of vital bookmarks are gone, and I need them. How can I get them?

What password was reset?

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