Bookmarks restored outside any folders

I restored my bookmarks from a few days ago via one of the day-by-day automatically-created backups (in the folder Profiles\...\bookmarkbackups).

The problem lies in the fact that the bookmarks were restored outside the folders in which they were catalogued. Specifically, the folders have been restored but are empty; all bookmarks are listed in the Bookmarks Menu, after the empty folders.

Is there any way to get the bookmarks back into the folders, or am I forced to do it by hand?


Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

PS: I use Firefox 90.0 on Windows 10.

E se provi a ripristinare da una diversa copia di backup?

Purtroppo ottengo lo stesso risultato.
