Greetings alekoc
Open folder: C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<symbols>.default and you will see folder bookmarkbackups. There backups bookmarks will be. Copy them and move on the working version of the browser.
If you do not see this folder, then copy all the files from the profile, and then copy them to your desktop browser profile (Note: The browser in this case must be closed).
Hopefully this advice will help with your problem.
Yours faithfully, Anticisco
