I had to reset my old laptop and it uninstalled Firefox. Now that I am up and running again, how can I get them back, if I can at all? Thank you.

On your hard drive, look for a folder called Windows.old
Is it there?

Everything from the original should be in that folder.

You can copy files like these with Firefox closed to the current profile folder to recover specific data.

You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.

I found it.

Set Windows to show hidden files and folders in order to explore it:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/14201/windows-show-hidden-files

Then, your previous Firefox data is along the following path.

C:\Windows.old\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles

Somewhere in there? Now see the above comments about the key files to recover.

Since C:\Windows.old is a temporary folder, move anything important to a real folder so Windows doesn't flush it before you have a chance to restore.
