I got a pop-up when windows started that I was using an older version of Firefox and my bookmarks could become corrupted. It also said that when I updated that my data/bookmarks would transfer, now all my history, logins and bookmarks are gone. I can't believe I have to put this on a forum, I need actual support.

Hope that wasn't a scam. I've never seen that in 20+ years

You can use [about:proflies] to see if you can view another profile and check for bookmarks, there is a folder in 'each' profile called [bookmarksbackups]

C:\Users\???loginname???\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*^$&(*^$%^&*.default-release
