AI Thread Summary
To access a backup of a Firefox session from an external hard drive, users can locate the sessionstore.js file, which is typically saved in JSON format. This file contains the necessary data to restore previous sessions. The process is confirmed to work effectively for retrieving past configurations. Additionally, since Flock operates similarly to Firefox, the same method can be applied for Flock users looking to restore their sessions.

Also another note, the file is saved in JSON format.

Thread 'Urgent: Physically repair - or bypass - power button on Asus laptop'

Asus Vivobook S14 flip. The power button is wrecked. Unable to turn it on AT ALL. We can get into how and why it got wrecked later, but suffice to say a kitchen knife was involved: These buttons do want to NOT come off, not like other lappies, where they can snap in and out. And they sure don't go back on. So, in the absence of a longer-term solution that might involve a replacement, is there any way I can activate the power button, like with a paperclip or wire or something? It looks...
