The upgrade wiped out everything. In searching for bookmarks to restore, I find I have several profiles. I want to RESTORE the BMs from ALL of these profiles. I understand that each "restore" replaces all bookmarks, so how does one CONSOLIDATE all of these profiles' bookmarks into one place?

I'm badly confused and extremely panicky about doing something that will actually wipe out the bookmarks backup!!

It's possible that Firefox did a refresh for some reason.

Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder called; Old Firefox?
