I only have bookmarks under Recently Bookmarked, that is not so useful. Show all bookmarks > Other bookmarks are empty. Restore bookmarks (1091 items) do not help.

Can I manually import restored bookmarks (1091 items) to the New Firefox. Then I need to know where that file is stored.

The restored bookmarks are JSONLZ4 files. Firefox can only import HTML files. I found the location to the restored bookmarks files in your links.

Thats bad, I cant import them. To restore them do not works.

After I have reset my Firefox Account password, if that matter, i found my bookmarks deep in the menue: View history bookmark > Bookmarks > Show all bookmarks > Bookmarks menue > Bookmarks. Why so deep in the menue? It is not that practical! Can I switch to the old Firefox?

With 52 ESR i got new problems. Very slow and always asking to be default webbrowser. I think I run the new Firefox any way in parallell with Google Chrome.
