OS Windows 10 Pro. Hard drive failure, new hard drives installed, 1 SS, 1 HD. All files were backed up as above. I found the folder with the bookmarks for Firefox and successfully installed them but what is the name of the file folder with all my email addresses? Can I also restore my original settings and filters??

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

If you really have backed up all files you could just restore your entire profile.

Your address books are stored in files with a .mab extension. Two of them, abook.mab and history.mab can be just copied into your new profile. Any others will need to be imported. I suggest using the MoreFunctionsForAddressBook addon to do this.
