OK, that is a Bookmarks file from Google Chrome. You would have to place this file in the default location that GC uses for its personal data and let Firefox import the GC bookmarks.

Google Chrome stores the bookmarks in JSON format in the Bookmarks file in its profile folder. C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Bookmarks

thanks, are there simple windows-explorer-like actions in firefox bookmarks manager: like undelete last removed url/folder and cancel renaming?

If you can undo an action then Undo in the Organize menu in the Bookmarks Manager (Library) is enabled (not grayed).
