Hello all, im needing some help.

Wifes comp blew up, an old Win7 system, component on the motherboard died, but I pulled the ssd out and dropped it onto something else so I can back data off of it.

I have it in a W10 box that is alive and well. There are 3 things i need to get at and I am not sure how, this is basically the same question for Firefox, Chrome and Opera (apparently some of her business stuff likes one browser and not another etc etc etc, I dont ask I just fix things).

So in firefox, i have the entire Firefox folder as the SSD it was all on seems to be alive and well and other back ups have been fine. Is there a way I can back everything off of her version of Firefox that is not installed just present as a secondary drive, so all her bookmarks, and (im assuming no on this part but ill ask) her web cache and add them into a new install of Firefox? Is this possible? If I just launch Firefox.exe form the D drive that was originally W7 not W10 would it fire up? It just needs to be alive long enough to do the backup to an HTML file and copy the addresses for the open tabs. Can this be done? PLEASE any\all advice would be GREATLY appreciated.
