hi arbrody, do you happen to have a folder called "old firefox data" on your desktop by chance and/or does an external tool like http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/passwordfox.html still show them?

You appear to have a disabled Password Exporter extension.

Did you ever created a backup of the passwords with this extension or did you backup any personal data in the profile folder?

You would need a backup of the logins.json and key3.db files.
