My Firefox 8 crashed and refushed to open so I installed Firefox 10 and now all history, and bookmarks are gone, is there a way to recover them?
The other day Firefox crashed and every time I tried to reopen it I just got the crash report that said either sent file to Mozilla or close, but Firefox would not open (after several reboots). So I installed the newest version of Firefox 10 and there is no history or bookmarks, how can I recover them?

If you used a remove personal settings option from Windows or Firefox,you may well have permanently lost those bookmarks.
- Undelete
If you did that then timely use of a file undelete utility and a good helping of luck are likely to be required to attempt recovery (probably best to stop using
the computer entirely, until you have such utility).
- Your Own Backups
You could have a backup system in place that backs up such files or the firefox profile, and you may be able to use that. - Synced to another machine
you may have the bookmarks synced on another machine, or even on an external server
See also lost bookmarks but I am not sure any of that applies in this case, it is worth reading it though
