All my stored passwords in mozilla suddenly disappeared. I have mozilla 35.0 for windows. I think this happened after my computer performed a windows update (windows 8.1). Is there a way to recover my passwords?

These add-ons can be a great help by backing up and restoring Firefox

FEBE (Firefox Environment Backup Extension) {web link} FEBE allows you to quickly and easily backup your Firefox extensions, history, passwords, and more. In fact, it goes beyond just backing up -- It will actually rebuild your saved files individually into installable .xpi files. It will also make backup of files that you choose.
