I have tried to restore my old Firefox profile and bookmarks but I cannot accomplish these tasks. Can someone please sign into my computer and restore for me?

What Firefox version last used this profile if you check compatibility.ini in this profile?
Make sure to look in the correct location.
Primary location used for the main profile that keeps your personal data (Root Directory on about:profiles).
- C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>
You can copy certain files with Firefox closed from one profile folder to another/current profile folder to transfer/recover/backup your personal data. Note that best is to avoid restoring a full profile folder and only restore important files that are safe to restore/transfer.
