No, same laptop, just an upgrade from Windows 7 to 10. Lost all my Bookmarks. Was wondering if there was any way for Firefox to help with recovering them.

Then you need to revert back to win7 as a upgrade will save all old data to windows.old that is where the data from the previous O/S is store. So restore Win7 back and then you have to export your bookmark so you can restore them back to Win10 install firefox.

Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/restore-bookmarks-from-backup-or-move-them
