I have an elderly friend who's computer was acting up. We could not fix the issue so we did a Windows Reset, keeping all the users files. I'd like to know, is there is any way to get the web browser profile(s) back? I'm looking at Edge and Firefox, on Windows 11 Home.
After the reset, we could log in with my friends PIN. That is about all the log in information that we have. I do not know if they previously had sync turned on for their profile in the browser., but even if so, we don't know what account it might have been linked to, and I doubt we would have the password for it.
I'm assuming that the profiles are still on the drive and we just need to find a way to link them to their browser.
Am I barking up the wrong tree, or is this possible?
