Bookmarks stopped working
My bookmarks have stopped working. When I went to Edit Bookmark I found they are all empty. I can create a new bookmark as usual, but I have over 300 bookmarks that no long function that are very important to my work. Is there any way I can possibly restore them, as my work depends on them?

Thank you for the solution! That worked perfectly! I am still dealing with the loss of my Ironvest password file which also occured as part of the same crash. Not sure if this was a fault of the Windows 11 update or a Firefox update, but the same exact thing happened on my wife's desktop about a week ago.
