Firefox makes backups of your bookmarks automatically but finding them can be difficult if you don't know where to look.
Go to Start > Run and type the following command.
%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\

It will take you to the Firefox profile folder.
Search for the folder bookmarkbackups and open it. You’ll find the bookmarks that were backed up by Firefox automatically. Now copy the latest file after looking in to the date of the file and paste in on your desktop.
Now start Firefox and go to Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks
In the new window that pops up go to File > Import > From File
Browse the file copied to your desktop earlier and Click OK. Hopefully your bookmarks will be restored.
