My FireFox was updated to version 153 and all of my bookmarks are gone. I tried to restore them in Manage Bookmarks. But when i click on 'Import and Backup', then 'Restore', then click on 'choose file' nothing happens. I navigated to the directory "bookmarkbackups" and I can see several backups, one dated 08/06/2026. But how do I get Manage Bookmarks to see that file?

I tried to bookmark a current tab and it does not show up under Bookmarks. why can't I set a new bookmark? Are these issues related?

I'm on Windows 10.

For the Troubleshooting data, I manually open about:support and clicked on 'Copy text to Clipboard'. Then pasted that into the box below.

I didn't know I need to keep a device on if I want to sync my old data. I read it thoroughly. This is annoying, I don't want to lose my Sync data from this because I didn't know. How do you guys retain your Sync data if I were to reset my password? My computer just got fixed and I don't like this greeting of where all my data like history and bookmarks flushed down because I wasn't signed-in in a device nor did I place a key or something.

My Firefox book marks have disappeared. The toolbar is open but has nothing to display.

I've gone to my Firefox Library window, but the entire page is blank. The table gives no entries for Name, Tags, or Location. Lines below (Name, URL, Location, Tags, and Keyword) are empty.

Searching my MacBook Air I found my Firefox Profile folder. In it there's a folder ending in "default-release". That folder contains a folder called "bookmarkbackups" containing files with titles indicating recent backups.

How can I restore my booksmarks?

I still have not made any progress recovering my lost Firefox bookmarks. I have tried several methods with no success. The bookmark toolbar doesn't work, so I can't bookmark any more pages. I tried restarting the computer and Firefox to no avail. I am considering switching to another browser. I am using Duck Duck Go which is not as good as Firefox that I have been using for about the last 10 years. I might try Microsoft Edge or Bing or some other browser.

Sincerely

I was trying to Sort by Name, but hit Delete, because the right-click menu presentation shifted. No worries, Ctrl Z should undo on PC. Nope. Now I'm learning the only restore is through JSTOR/backup. I don't want to restore a previous state of operation. I want to un-Delete a folder. Is that a feature somewhere, somehow?

And secondly, can I force confirmation for all future folder deletions?

CCleaner wiped out my bookmarks and their functionality. I have repaired, then uninstalled CCleaner. I have refreshed, uninstalled then reinstalled Firefox. I have logged in and out of Firefox. I have made an HTML file of bookmarks from another device in order to try to import them. Firefox bookmarks will not proceed to an upload stage. I went into setting to add the HTML of bookmarks and it said "this is not a bookmarks file." Well, Firefox made that HTML bookmarks file so I have no idea how that could be. Nothing I have tried has worked.
