You can restore the bookmarks from a JSON backup in the bookmarkbackups folder.
- Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Restore
The name of a JSON bookmarks backup file includes a total item count (folders and separators included) and an hash value to prevent saving the same backup more than once.
- bookmarks-YYYY-MM-DD_<item count>_<hash>.jsonlz4.

You can try to change the password of the Sync account to reset all data stored on the Sync server.
Thanks bro, i got bookmarks but i need also saved password
You can check if there is a previous version of the file available.
- Right-click: Properties > Previous Versions

For the passwords you would need logins.json and key3.db
You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:
- Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
