Firefox keeps backups in the bookmarkbackups folder for the bookmarks.

The name of automatically created JSON bookmarks backups in the bookmarkbackups folder includes a total item count (folders and separators included) and an hash value to prevent saving the same backup more than once. You also see this count in the Library Restore menu drop-down list.

  • bookmarks-YYYY-MM-DD_<item count>_<hash>.jsonlz4.

If you use the Time Machine or other backup, try to restore file(s) from this backup.
