I have been having some issues that I hoped a truly CLEAN reinstall would fix. So after bookmarking all of my tabs and exporting my bookmarks so I'd be able to "restore" my "session" later, I uninstalled Firefox and told it to remove my user data.

Then I reinstalled, imported my bookmarks, and manually began adding plugins back in. And discovered that Firefox didn't actually bookmark ANY of the tabs I told it to bookmark before uninstalling yesterday, so I have no record of them. No history, because I wiped that out. No saved session because there's no way to export it. And now no bookmarks because it screwed up.

Is there any way to recover the deleted user profile? Surely it should still exist on my hard drive somewhere, right?
