I have really enjoyed using Firefox. It so easy to use. However, today I tried to open my bookmarks but can't even find them and I have made many bookmarks. Why did Firefox do this? I feel betrayed. I can access my bookmarks.

Restore Bookmark Backups
Firefox automatically makes backups of the bookmarks. These are stored in the bookmarkbackups folder.
Open the Bookmarks Manager; Press the Alt or F10 key to bring up the toolbar, and select Bookmarks. Hot key is <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> B. Firefox 84+ <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> O.
Once the window is open, at the top of the page, press the button labeled Import and Backup. Select Restore. From the list, pick the file you want and click it.
The backups are stored in a jsonlz4 file named something like this; bookmarks-2016-06-29_1424_enD1GTH ya0JmicnYWg4V4g==.jsonlz4
In this example; 2016-06-29 = date created, 1424 = number of entries.

It was so simple but now I don't remember. Oh, I just opened Firefox browser and then alt B and there it was, a new dropdown menu with Manage Bookmarks right at the top. I would love to know why they changed this. What's the point? Why can't they just leave well enough alone? The various long-drawn-out fixes I found were absurd.
