My back up restore isn't working after doing an update Mozilla requested
Mozilla asked me to restart and reset, and in doing so I've lost ALL my bookmarks! When I follow the instructions to restore from back up, nothing appears and I get an error message. Please help!

Hi, that does happen sometimes, please try :

- What's What in the Profile
- bookmarks and history: places.sqlite
- bookmark backups: compressed .jsonlz4 JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups folder
- cookies.sqlite for the Cookies
- formhistory.sqlite for saved autocomplete Form Data
- logins.json (passwords) and key4.db (58+) or key3.db (57 and older) (decryption key) for Passwords saved in the Password Manager

- if you only have cert8.db then make sure to remove an existing cert9.db

- permissions.sqlite for Permissions and possibly content-prefs.sqlite for other website specific data (Site Preferences)
- sessionstore.jsonlz4 for open tabs and pinned tabs (see also the sessionstore-backups folder)
