Hi,
                   When you uninstall  the firefox, it creates old firefox folder in your desktop. You could click on that and see the profile has any js.bak on the above subject in the link. If you check the properties, and found that it does contain more than 0 bytes, see the date of it, if you think that it contains the old data like your preference, saved passwords, then you could use that profile to restore the session . I will try to give the link in this regard after locating it in the web
The Bottom line is "Check your hardware first if it supports the task you try".

That is exactly given in the Helpful reply. Do you get the name of the deleted files?

Try bak extensions. Does that show. Otherwise, try panda recovery from panda site. I think that it shows the name of the file or atleast bak. There will be less bak files. You could choose, in recuva the documents , please see the bak files. I know that it is a hard task in recuva, for you might have erased so much of files and folders in your sessions, and pl note that the files with green icon at the left could only be retrieved. Red shows, overwritten files and there is no choice of recovery.
                                        Do not you have the files in the old firefox data. I will try to give link from firefox any other recover method.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/session-manager/

look like this add-one is no longer to be updated! anyway I will give this add-one a try and hope isn’t using all memory as tab mix plus and adblock plus! so they both kill my system and goes to shutting-down right away : )

Hi, Gamez
                         I used the word with caution in my previous post, as generally add on should be tried and then if it cause, or appear to cause something bad, please immediately disable this add on in the add in programs in firefox.
                              User views will be mingled as they would have tried and depending upon their machine condition
