As above, found old copy of the file BUT cannot take out the history from the file so I cannot keep my current bookmarks.

My best guess is to somehow save my bookmarks then put in old file with old history and then import my newer bookmarks...

Unless there is a easier way to restore my history??

Firefox stores the bookmarks and the history in one SQLite database file named places.sqlite in the Firefox profile folder.

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
