New computer, W11, completely updated. The old SATA SSD was removed from old PC, had W10 on it and that had FFx 133.0 installed; successfully transferred the bookmarks to another W10 PC but not the Passwords/logins. Transferred all the information from the Mozilla folder (per Firefox/Mozilla help) to a USB: plugged it into my new computer and did the same transfer of the Places, Key4, logins, and favacons to the new computer: no change. Just finished uninstalling FF and removing the Mozilla file from App Data, then doing a complete reinstall; then added the old places etc. to the new install. Nope, didn't work. So what's going on with FF and W11?? Is there a solution? I have been with Firefox now for over 10 years and have never had these kinds of problems moving my information.

MODERATOR: mark this question as solved, please. I truly don't know what happened or what I did other than what I have listed above, but late last night (12/10) I went to try moving all these things again ----- and they were in place, they had installed etc. I am at a loss as to why all my logins and bkmrks. are now on the new PC, but who am I to question fate, good luck or The Lord.
