Hopefully your old profile is still present and you can switch back to it.

Exit Firefox and start up in the Profile Manager using Start > search box (or Run):

firefox.exe -P

Don't delete anything here... it's too easy to delete the wrong thing.

Highlight your old profile, possibly named Default, and start Firefox.

Success?
