I've tried restoring to an earlier date and only the newer version of mozilla comes up without the bookmarks that I had in the older version of mozilla. I didn't do a backup of my bookmarks in the older version before uninstalling it. I thought mozilla would just keep them in my newer version of mozilla. I would like to get the bookmarks back that were in my older version of mozilla.

Did you chose to remove personal data when uninstalling?

Firefox will delete your profile folder in that case and you lose personal data like bookmarks.

Did Firefox create a new default profile?

Note that a System Restore can restore older versions of.ini and .js files like profiles.ini, so you need to be cautious when doing s System Restore and always first create a full backup of the Firefox profile folder.
You can consider to 9temporarily) undo the restore and backup your personal data.
