Missing Bookmarks Folder
So my Firefox decided it was time to update to v26. Fine. Don't like the layout. Whatever.
But now part of my bookmarks are invisible. Not deleted. Not corrupt. Invisible.
I can open up the bookmarks file in notepad and find each individual bookmark, but why is this one folder the only one that is no longer on firefox bookmarks?
I've searched for answers and nothing seems to work.

Hello,
Firefox automatically creates backups of your bookmarks, which can be helpful if your bookmarks are lost or missing. To recover them, follow the instructions below.
- Use one of these methods to open the Bookmarks Library window:
- Click the Firefox button to open the menu and click on Bookmarks.
- Click the Bookmarks menu and click on Show All Bookmarks.
- At the top of the Library window, click the "Import and Backup" menu and select Restore.
- Click the date of the bookmark backup you want to recover.
- In the new window that appears, click OK.
- Your bookmarks from the selected date should now be restored.
For more information, see the Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer article. For other solutions, see the Recover lost or missing Bookmarks article.

Thank you.
I tried this and it did not solve my problem. The folder where the bookmarks are, have been hidden. Despite them working only days ago. All of the backed up bookmarks are the same.
You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.
