Bookmarks lost after system restore to earlier time

I am using Windows 10 and have spent considerable time trying to recover my lost bookmarks after restoring computer to earlier time. I have followed 'help' guidelines but nothing works.

Firefox claims that bookmarks are saved to a backup profile but there is nothing in the folder.

These are very important research bookmarks collected over years!

I did a Firefox Refresh which messed up my toolbar and I lost an icon so I tried to restore computer to an earlier date which I have done successfully before without problem and without losing my bookmarks.

Please provide easy to understand step by step instructions on how to recover this vital information.

Hi Charles

Did you take a backup of your Firefox profile before you restored your computer?
