Did any other data get synchronized?

Like add-ons, bookmarks, history, and tabs. Or was it a complete failure?


If a complete failure, you didn't happen to "need" to request a new Sync password?

If so, changing the Sync password wipes your data from the Sync server - it's gone.

Do you still have access to the old PC?

You can copy files like these to the current Firefoxx profile folder to recover specific data. Be cautious with copying SQLite databases if you previously had problems.

  • bookmarks and history: places.sqlite
  • bookmark backups: JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups folder
  • cookies.sqlite for the cookies
  • formhistory.sqlite for saved form data
  • logins.json and key3.db (decryption key) for Passwords saved in the Password Manager
  • cert8.db and possibly cert_override.txt for (intermediate) certificates stored in the Certificate Manager
  • persdict.dat for words you added to the spelling checker dictionary
  • permissions.sqlite for Permissions and possibly content-prefs.sqlite for other Site Preferences
  • sessionstore.js for open tabs and pinned tabs

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.

Firefox uses two locations for the Firefox profile folder, so make sure to look in the correct location. Location used for the main profile in "AppData\Roaming" that keeps your personal data. You need this location to recover your passwords.

  • C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\

Location used for the disk cache and other temporary files in "AppData\Local".

  • C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\

All other data got synced, bookmarks and history. Just the passwords that are not showing. I do not have the old PC anymore

Actually I backed up a folder called ccupup64.default that seems to have all the files you have mentioned
