Lost recently closed windows, history missing completely

Hello,

Usually both of my previously closed windows reopen without issue, but the data for both of them disappeared this time when I clicked on a zoom link after closing them. The link opened, but they didn't. I did the basic troubleshooting like checking my entire history (under "managed history") and looking in settings as well as following the instructions I found here at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1407584, but everything's gone. It's like they never existed in the first place. Has anyone else had this issue?

Also, about a couple of months ago, Firefox started forgetting my accounts and logging me out of them once I closed the window/the tabs reloaded. Not sure if this is due to my computer's own storage (RAM) or an update-related issue - I haven't been able to figure it out yet.

Any insight on either or both of these is greatly appreciated!
