How do I get my bookomarks back?
Recently restarted Firefox with add-ons disabled, all my bookmarks are gone, stored in backup as JSONLZ4 files. How do I get them back?

Hmm, neither the Safe Mode nor the Refresh options should remove your bookmarks.
The .jsonlz4 files are used by the Restore feature. Please see this article for more info: Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer.
Also, in case the problem is that a Refresh turned off the display of the Bookmarks Toolbar, you can use one of these methods to show the toolbar list and select the desired bars there:
- right-click a blank spot on the tab bar (or the "+" button)
- tap the Alt key to activate the classic menu bar > View > Toolbars
- in Customize mode > Show/Hide Toolbars (see: Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars)
To turn on the Bookmarks Toolbar, Menu Bar, or other bars, click it on the list.
Any improvement?
