I've used Win.7 on computers and migrated Firefox info between them using MozBackup-1.4.10 for years. Just got new Win.10 computer and cannot get Firefox to look like it did on Win.7 even though it is same version. In particular, no bookmarks bar and can't find bookmarks anywhere. It's like MozBackup did nothing. Thanks for any help you can give.

MozBackup is dead, and has been for quite awhile.

The developer of that application quit developing that application long before Firefox 57 Quantum came out. That version broke most all extensions and many applications that were developed for the previous "legacy" versions of Firefox.

Never, ever used MozBackup so I don't know how the files from the Firefox Profile folder are "packaged", but the individual files from the Profile folder can be manually copied into an new or existing Profile manually.

Perhaps a former MozBackup user can shed some light on how to proceed. ...
