Hi evedyah,

It sounds like you are trying to login and receiving a message of a failed login. I am sorry to hear this.

As long as no changes have been made to the profile folders or the computer, all of the profile information will be in the local profile. Please feel free to make a local back up of the profile. Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data

Then go ahead and create a new account with the email address.
