Use a password manager like keepass.
Dont keep passwords in a single spot.

If the cookies for any domain/s was clear, you'll have to re-enter them and save them in ME again.

I don't believe there's a backup anywhere.

Also, does this have anything to do with Steam?

restore a browser data is not easy unless you do have backup of it. and i doubt recycle bin has the info.

Edge can synchronize passwords across devices. You may find your stuff in another instance of Edge.

I mean if you had Edge on several devices and have enabled password (and other stuff) synchronisation, then Edge on, let's say, your phone, may still have had a copy of all your passwords.
