I could not upload my screen shots to this help system.

I'll try to do this here. Th attached mages are supposed to be screen shots showing my crash date and the Bookmark Backup files, which are essentially empty!

My bookmark back up is essentially empty because it shows nothing from before the crash on April 27th. Is there a way to restore my Firefox to a time before the crash - say April 27th at noon?

Hi,

The people who answer questions here, for the most part, are other Firefox users volunteering their time (like me), not Mozilla employees or Firefox developers.

If you want to leave feedback for Firefox developers, you can go to the Firefox Help menu and select Submit Feedback... or use this link. Your feedback gets collected at http://input.mozilla.org/, where a team of people read it and gather data about the most common issues.
