If you are talking about how to retrieve them in Firefox:

File > Import and follow the instructions.

FYI, In Firefox, it's called Bookmarks instead of Favorites.

What you need to do is to import your favorites from Internet Explorer. For further instructions, refer to this article: Import Bookmarks and other data from Microsoft Edge.

In IE: File > Import/Export - Export to HTML file

then in Firefox: Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks -> Import & Backup - Import HTML... = From HTML file
