Upgrade StorageLost Library after Firefox reset - HELP
After my partner downloaded bad (malware) software, I reset Firefox to clear the effects of the malware.
With the Firefox reset, I lost my Zotero library.
I am using a Mac and need a "Zotero for Dummies" explanation of:
1- where/how to find my old information
2- how to resotre this old library into my new Firefox/Zotero profile.
ANY and ALL easy to understand help would be appreciated. (I have seen similar issues within this forum... but I do not understand the technical description of how to salvage my lost information.)

aurimasThere should be an "Old Firefox Data" folder on your desktop. Inside it you will find a "zotero" folder. Use that folder as your backup data directory and follow the instructions here

adamsmith(and if that isn't clear, the more specific you can be with any questions you have, the better).
