FF "profile"?
at some point a couple of weeks ago, FF (49.0.2) cleared everything from my faves and faves bar. are these kept anywhere? i see the ones for IE in windows app data folders for example.

furthermore, what is the diff betw all the windows IDs? when i boot windows (8.1), it offers me 2 profiles -- admin and [me] -- yet docs and settings lists "admin" "all users" "default" "default user" [me] and "public". i know from past experience that only [me] lists my correct faves...altho right now most are all saying "access is denied" so i cannot even confirm this. (i am also having probs -- other thread -- with admin privileges not functioning correctly...but of that another day....) back to FF, after some recent crash, it offered me 2 "profiles" to resume via. just numbers, so i had no clue what they corresponded to. i picked one blindly -- with no improvement -- but i am left wondering whether picking the other would have caused my faves to suddenly reappear? no clue how to get back to that screen short of a lucky crash again. how do i sign out and sign back in to my *other* FF profile? |

alas, the other profile was EQUALLY bare. i guess i somehow created both of these recently.... is there some place the faves are KEPT, where i might find old folders full of them? i've looked under FF, under Windows, and -- where possible -- under app data. had several HUNDRED links in those faves pulldowns. hope they're not COMPLETELY lost! |
