I'm using genuine windows 10. After a recent update (Feature update to Windows 10, version 1809), my firefox (updated) address bar HISTORY & all the BOOKMARKS have disappeared. I'm unable to restore it. When I try to bookmark any site, it does not do it. Plz let me know the step by step procedure to resolve these issues. Thanks in anticipation.
