• My computer crashed and after reboot, I lost all my saved passwords. How can I recover it?

  I was looking on a saved password when suddenly my computer crashed and restarted. After reboot I couldn't see the saved passwords.
  As a test, I saved a password and this password is displayed in the list of saved passwords, but all the others are still missing.
  How can I retrieve my saved passwords?

  Thank you!

  If the file has no valid data then you may not use this file.

  You can try if there is an earlier copy of the logins.json file.

• New version lost all my saved passwords and not save everything - I tried help

  Earlier versions of registered FF going on very well, but for the two latest updates that the function has stopped working. I tried the steps in the FAQ "passwords not saved", even changed my story custom to always save settings. I don't care. Don't make passwords or even asking me. All passwords that had been in my profile for the last two years are no longer visible in the window of the options "show saved". Should I uninstall Firefox and start over?

  The extension 'Remember password' has been reported to cause problems with passwords disappears, so if you have this extension and then remove (uninstall) it.

  Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

  • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
  • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe
  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/safe+mode
  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

  Make sure that you are not Firefox running in permanent private browsing mode (don't remember history).

  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/private+browsing
  • Tools > Options > privacy > Firefox will be: "use the custom settings for history".
  • : Uncheck the [] "always use the private browsing mode.

  It is possible that there is a problem with signons3.txt (encryption key) and logins.json (encrypted names and passwords) in Firefox.
  You can open the logins.json file in Notepad (Firefox/tools > Web Developer) to check its content.
  Click on the button to "Pretty Print" to fit the file for readability.
  If there are names and passwords encrypted in logins.json there is probably a problem with the signons3.txt file that stores the encryption key.
  You can rename the file signons3.txt (key3.db.old) and the logins.json (logins.json.old) file or move these files to another folder to make it possible to cancel the action.

  Rename or delete a file of possible signons.sqlite (signons.sqlite.old) used by older versions of Firefox as well.
  You must define a new master password after renaming or removing the signons3.txt and all the currently saved passwords are lost.

  You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:

• I had Cogeco security Anti Virus etc installed on the computer, called and asked them to remove it, and when they did, he deleted Outlook Express too.

  I had Cogeco security Anti Virus etc installed on the computer and called and asked them to remove it and when they did... He also took off my e-mail Outlook Express6 program.  After talking to them... they said was probably altered the outlook express and take off the anti virus program him took off the corrupt outlook express as well.  Can someone tell me where to find a download for outlook express6 for windows xp professional?

  Thank you

  original title: download of outlook express6

  They screwed something. OE is a part of IE6 and both are part of the XP operating system. You can't take off OE is there a standalone download.

  Control Panel | Add/Remove programs. Add/Remove Windows components. OE is checked and restart.

  If OE is verified:

  Right click on the desktop | New | Shortcut. Navigate to "c:\program files\outlook express\msimn.exe". Click next | Click Finish.  It will be a new shortcut on the desktop.

  I would like to know where you are now.

  I think that's the problem. Go to the original catalog, uncheck it, close LR, open LR, and create the new catalog.

  Hi, you can try it for only bookmarks: first open the bookmarks > show all bookmarks > import and backup > restore and see if you have a backup there.

  If not and the other favorites, please see.
