i installed new Firefox on new computer got an email to sync bookmarks and folder to new Firefox then accidentally deleted them from the bookmarks now cant get anything back . Did get backup folder but don't know how to install bookmarks back on from the old firefox data folder. Would just like to get the email to install bookmarks back but cant find that setting anymore and the old email only lets you use it one time. Now on the old computer the bookmarks have gone on it as well maybe synced it to the new Firefox. So frustrated. Thanks for any help you can give. Regards Chris this is the link email that no longer works https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/products/firefox/install-and-update-firefo

Hello, open Firefox and go to about:profiles, then click on the Open Folder button under the root directly, NOT LOCAL, you will see your profile folder opened in a new Windows Explorer window. On the desktop there should be a Folder called 'Old Firefox Data' open it, and copy all the files from there, into the new profile you opened from about:profiles. Then restart Firefox. If this solved your problem, mark as solution.
