85Hi Guys, Ok after getting my old profile back I didn't like
Firefox 85 at all with all the tiles and what not, it looked like
Windows 10. So I foolishly deleted Firefox 85 and was hoping to
download 84, which I was happy with. I then realized I had NO
browser. After dredging up and old computer I was able to download a
copy of Firefox to a memory card and get a browser back on my
computer. Now however it seems that none of the profiles contain all
my bookmarks and passwords. Like I said before there is a file on my
desktop that is called "old firefox data" is there a way i can
create a new profile to restore my bookmarks and passwords from
that?<br>
<br>
Thanks, Mike<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"> I'm running the new version (84 or
85) of Firefox... speed is a LOT better on the new one
(matching or exceeding Chrome on several benchmarks with
far better security) but it's got some quirks. They are
pushing into using the firefox accounts where you log into
firefox; when I did this I ended up with my bookmarks
showing up from my home computer (Linux Centos 7) and my
work computer (Winders 10) all added together. I'm not
sure how it's supposed to work but that's what I ended up
with. This MAY help, but it could have also been a
Microsoft update (meaning MS blew some things away for
"security reasons").<o:p></o:p></p>
