Revert back to older version
I was wondering how I can revert to my old version of firefox. When I downloaded the new version (57.0.2) it created an "Old Firefox Data" which has all of my bookmarks and account info (which I no longer have access to). I am no longer interested in this version because it is not compatible with my software.
Thank you for your assistance.

Going back : unfortunately 56.0.2 and below is no longer safe to use for every day use do to secuity issues, but 52.5.2 ESR is. It will continue to get security updates until May 2018, and you can download and install it from this page: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/all/ Note : Legacy Extensions will be deleted or removed in any version update after May 2018.
You should make a backup of your Profile before going back and just because: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profiles

Your Firefox is identifying itself as version 45 which is rather ancient now. Is that correct??
The following was written for Windows, but I think if you change "Windows Explorer" to "Finder" in your mind, and Ctrl+c/Ctrl+v/Ctrl+a to use the Command key, the steps would be the same: I did a Reset of Firefox - How do i get add my 'Old firefox data' back?
