Backed-up Bookmarks stranded in emergency backup

At the time my old Vista PC crashed, I didn't have a JSON-format backup of my Bookmarks created by Firefox, only regular backups created with Todo, Memeo, and MS's barebones emergency backup. So I have on new Windows 7 PC at least one restored set of Bookmarks that display in Windows Explorer as folders and filenames, with content displayed only by clicking on file properties.

Are these Bookmarks then as good as lost completely, or somehow retrievable as a batch of URLs with Bookmark names?
