The Motherboard on my Windows 7 gave up, however the SSD that it was on is still working properly.

I have seen it on an alternative Windows 7 computer.

I specifically wish to recover the the Bookmarks that is on the Mozilla Firefox browser, and also all of my emails on Mozilla Thunderbird.

I would be most grateful, if someone can please tell me how this can be done?

Good news, I have been able to rescue my Mozilla Firefox bookmarks and Thunderbird emails. However this has been done in a different fashion.

Initially I could see all my emails in their correct corresponding folders, but then for some reason they have all now been grouped in the following folders: Inbox (23795) Sent Mail (1031) All Mail (23796) Important (9027) And it was the same for my bookmarks.

I don't know what went on here. Is there a way to transfer them back in their original settings please?
