You only can access files using cmd.exe ?
You'll need to explore down the path to your profile folder. The path varies depending on the OS run on the drive.
Windows Vista-10:
C:\Users\your-username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\
Windows XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\your-username\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\
As a shortcut, try starting with these two commands
cd %APPDATA% cd Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
The first should get you inside the hidden AppData (or Application Data) folder, and the second should get you from there to the Profiles folder.
When you get to the Profiles folder, you will find one or more folders with partially random names (e.g., a1b2c3d4.default). Use dir to find the name, then you have some some tricky typing to do.
Inside, look for the bookmarkbackups folder. Here, finally, are compressed .jsonlz4 files you can restore to your new Firefox. See: Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer.
