How do I install a prior FireFox back up on my peripheral hard drive?

I had to reinstall FF (64 bit) on my Win 7 pro desktop after connectivity was lost for reasons that are unclear. I have a recent FF backup created with 'MozBackup' on a peripheral hard drive but don't see how o import that data into the newly installed FF.

2nd issue: My FF connectivity was lost after trying to follow a 'learn more' notice regarding the removal of the 'group tabs' function from FF. As I was investigating the connectivity problem on IE (which was working) I saw that a substitute for group tabs was available as an extension. Can you direct me to that? I used group tabs extensively!!

Thanks.

Please disregard tabs issue, found 'Tab Groups' add-on.
