Firefox synced blank settings to all my other machines

Post by dire_rhea »

I suppose this might be more of a firefox sync issue... that caused it.

Installed firefox on a new machine. signed in. It installed noscript without any settings. These blank settings seemed to replicate everywhere else.

However, I have a full machine backup of my machine prior to this happening.

I searched posts but I can't find the sql file mentioned - and these posts are from <=2019 so I'm thinking the process for storing settings may have changed.

I really would like to get the settings back because I have years worth of customizations. What is the file name? Where is it? Can I just overwrite the newer file on my machine with the older one?
