You normally can't restore deleted history. Firefox stored bookmarks and history in the SQLite database places.sqlite. This file gets updated frequently, but the file stays the same size. You would need a snapshot of this file from time that it still had the deleted history.

If you do not have such a update and also Windows didn't keep previous versions as part of a Windows System Restore point then you are out of luck assuming that you also aren't using Sync with other devices connected.

You can look at a utility to browse System Restore points.
