OK, that is a Bookmarks file from Google Chrome. You would have to place this file in the default location that GC uses for its personal data and let Firefox import the GC bookmarks.

Google Chrome stores the bookmarks in JSON format in the Bookmarks file in its profile folder. C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Bookmarks

If you can undo an action then Undo in the Organize menu in the Bookmarks Manager (Library) is enabled (not grayed).
