I Lost my password for firefox/mozilla web brouser, and everything says If you get a new one it Wipes out all your saved info, Bookmarks,Etc.

How can I get it without destroying years of work.

Chosen solution

In the event that the passwords information is lost, you should record all information in a separate text file somewhere else on your hard drive, or written down. You can easily copy and paste if you need to do so. If you are concerned about someone else looking at that file, you can compress it using a password.

You lost which password?

  • Firefox Account password used for the "Sync" service?
  • "Master Password" used to unlock your saved logins?
  • A different password?

Then you're right, it's impossible to access the account in the account.

What happened to the other device where you had the data? Could you make a copy of it from disk?
