Hi,

You can try to start the Firefox Profile Manager and choose the *.default profile. Hopefully the bookmarks, history and passwords will be back. You can also check in the other profiles by exiting the currently started Firefox and starting another, or you can also try to start all the profiles one by one by using firefox.exe -p -no-remote.

As a precaution you may want to take a backup of all the profiles: Type %appdata% in the Run box (Windows key + R), open Mozilla\Firefox and copy the Profiles folder.

Did you uninstall Firefox because you will only get the import wizard if there is no profile.ini file found with profiles in it?
