Your Firefox bookmarks and other data could be found in your old Firefox profile folder.

By default, Windows sets this as a hidden folder, so step 1 is to set Windows to show hidden files and folders. This article has the steps:

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hidden-files

Next, use the Windows search bar to look for all instances of bookmarks-2016* -- the automatic backup files Firefox creates every few days. This might be on your C drive or it might be on other media if that's how it was preserved.

These files follow a naming pattern like:

bookmarks-2016-03-10_750_gibberish.jsonlz4

In this example, the backup was made on March 10, 2016 and contains 750 bookmarks and bookmark folders. So you can get a sense of which one(s) look most promising.

Note: Windows doesn't know how to open these files, so don't try that. Instead, you'll use the Restore procedure. See:

Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer

Any luck?
