Yesterday, My browser was running slow, so I used the Firefox Refresh. I lost everything I had - my bookmarks, everything on facebook, all of my settings on my toolbars - all of it. I know there has to be a way to retrieve it, but I don't know how. Can you help me please.

Refresh Firefox {web link} is a LAST RESORT ! !

Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings

If you're having problems with Firefox, refreshing it can help. The refresh feature fixes many issues by restoring Firefox to its default state while saving your essential information like bookmarks, passwords, and open tabs.

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