I am trying to find the localstorage of a website, which I can no longer visit, however the only thing I found was ways to read it through the console/ developer tools, which only allow me to read it from my currently visited site. Is there any way to read it? Can't even find it in the explorer searching through all my files.

It forces http to go to https. That in itself is no problem, however one of my userscripts had stored its data in localstorage and seems to have a complete separate localstorage for the https, making the data theoretically lost. Thus I am trying to access the localstorage from the http.
