How do I restore desktop?

Thing is, I want to restore my Firefox bookmarks, not IE favourites.
I can locate my bookmarks in Firefox profiles, but they are in .json and I can't open them. Grrr

Have you tried restoring bookmarks from Bookmarks/show all bookmarks/import and backup?

I cannot help you with FF. I never use it. It is too much of a pain.

Normally one keeps the bookmarks in FF and IE manually synchronized. If you also did that then import the IE favorites into FF.
