Updated to Firefox Ver 72.0.2 and all my FVD Speeddials are gone. Any way to recover? Is there a fix?

I'm finally figuring out that every time I do an update to Firefox, my FVD Speeddial Extension gets deleted. I didn't relate the two until now. I have been re-creating the tabs every time, but I had SO many this time that I'm crushed. I will be backing them up before updating next time, but can I recover them this time? Is there a fix for this? The EverSync backup does not have my latest version, I already checked.

Sorry to hear about this problem; it's definitely not normal for add-on data to be deleted during a routine automatic update.

Is FVD SpeedDial data the only data that gets lost during updates? Do you get prompted to create a new profile or perform a Refresh during updates?

I'm not sure what EverSync backs up, but the following article describes how to back up your essential Firefox data: Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles.
