Helllllllllllp! Just had firefox install an update & now all my saved bookmarks, login passwords & previous home page have all gone. Have reset Home page, checked that Profile is correct & the bookmark folder is empty. Where have they all gone. Yes I have restarted my computer but made no difference.

Chosen solution

There aren't any profiles that aren't listed in about:profiles and also no "Old Firefox Data" folder on the desktop from a refresh?

Followed the link @ profile instructions. The only file in "bookmarkbackups" is a bookmark I created today, NO previous bookmarks are present. Looks like I will have to reload all my bookmarks again once I open associated web sites.

Not happy that I have lost everything due to an unplanned update.
