Need help brave reset,lost years of bookmarks and history, After reinstalling the fix for 1.82.166(brave snap not opeaning after update issue) config files are still there on home


Description of the issue: snap app reset and went to welcome page losing bookmarks and history after fixing the issue with recent linux snap not opening issue.

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. i have been using brave snap store version from years, last week after updating to 1.82.166 it didn’t open,and before there was x11(snap run brave --ozone-platform=x11 ) fix, i tried to fix it by reinstalling it from website using terminal and terminal version worked(with welcome window no saved bookmarks)

  2. there were now two braves one from snap(not opening) and new terminal version..uninstalled the terminal version using apt remove and purge cmd…after finding the snap version fix and realizing that snap and terminal brave are different.

  3. after running snap run brave --ozone-platform=x11 it started working but it reset with no bookmarks and extensions. altho it remembered its place on dashboard.

Expected result:

Brave Version( check About Brave): 1.82.166 and later

Additional Information: i checked .config and there are multiple files in bravesoftwares folder also it remember the pinned place on desktop..Please help recover my bookmarks and history.

is this salvageable or i continue from new please someone..
