FF sometimes truncates my bookmarks or reloading, requiring me to restore an older profile and lose recent bookmarks; what to do?

This is new with my recently refurbished HP tablet with Win7. I moved the profile from my prior computer. Last items in bookmark listing don't appear, as if there was a size limitation.

Just completed a registry repair of 723 errors with RegZotta. Bringing FF up was truncated at same place as yesterday. Restore from yesterday brought up the whole BBlist, but now the items I bookmarked this morning are missing. I can't tolerate this for long.

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
