I know that they're backed up on my computer in a file, but they're encrypted so I can't figure out what they are. I have absolutely no idea why they disappeared in the first place, but does anyone know how to get them back? I honestly need them to survive, because I was an IDIOT for not writing them down on paper in the first place. e_e If anyone can be of any help AT ALL, please don't hesitate to respond. I'd be forever thankful.<3

if you also have those same favorites in internet explorer, then you can uninstall, then reinstall firefox, when it reinstalls it will pick up all of the favorites from explorer

Not the answer you are looking for but this is a tip -- go to www.shortkeys.com, d/l the free lite version - list your passwords on that when you get them back, then when you need to use them its a simple matter of hitting just a couple of keys to insert pw where u want - for instance if your pw for yahoo games was something like yahoogamespwaredifficult to crackiftheyarelong then your shortkey could be say >>> yg01 and it will fill in the complete pw - a bonus is that keyloggers cant log your keystrokes then (back them up on CD too ;) ) -- gl

Go back to your sites and log back in then allow it to save the password.

I am afraid that you can’t. Firefox is very secure, if you lost them, you will never get them back.
Open option-privacy, dissect "Always clear my private data when I close Firefox".
