Please help me fix this. I had reset my windows and after I installed and signed in to my firefox account. The data from my previous sessions like bookmarks, logins and passwords are not synced with my account. Those were very crucial for my work. Please Please help me out asap.

Did Windows possibly create a C:\Windows.old folder with your personal data ?

You didn't reset the password for the Firefox Account used for Sync as that will wipe all data on the Sync server ?

Keep in mind that Sync isn't meant to be used as a backup, but merely to sync data to other connected devices.
