I am forced to do a reset after a mother board installation. I haven't found any specific instructions on how to move my passwords and bookmarks to a cloud. I'd prefer to stay in FF and NOT use Microsoft. I'm a carpenter and work in the field and not greatly computer savvy...

Suggestions?

Thanks

Warning: Some system resets may allow you to save your data. But all programs and their data could be removed.

Back up everything you don't want to lose to an external drive.
