I have missed group

[mihalt]

Hi! I don't know what happen, but I have deleted group which I used most often. Also I don't see it in previous backups. Not in Export, not in Import. Problem became only today.

Looks like, that problem is connected with new winodws updates. Maybe one of them was installed incorrectly and deleted active groups

I found windows backups and overrote folders like:

C:\Users\Mihail\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla
C:\Users\Mihail\AppData\Local\Mozilla
C:\Users\Mihail\AppData\Local\Mozilla Firefox

And now I have problem "Error caught in Sync Tab Groups"

Looks like, that problem is connected with new windows updates. Maybe one of them was installed incorrectly and deleted active groups

Sorry to hear you have problems with the groups. The project is no more maintained since a while so I am not surprised it does not work perfectly any more.

Usually the internal data of the extension could be found in a path rather similar to here: https://github.com/Morikko/sync-tab-groups/wiki/Backup
If you don't find anything, there was probably a glitch with either Windows, Firefox or the extension. And sadly, I don't have any solution.

By the way I recommend you to switch to another extension for the future (Cf alternative here https://github.com/Morikko/sync-tab-groups#the-project-is-no-more-maintained). You can even transfer the groups to Simple Tabs Groups fro a save.

Thank you very much for answer! But what must I do now to move tabs to Simple Tab Groups? I can't even open Sync Tabs Groups now. And can't delete it and reinstall, because it was deleted from Mozilla extantions. How can I renew it's life for transfering to Simple Tabs Groups?
