My computer hard drive had to be replaced but I had a back-up drive on it so my data was saved.

I have to reload software and in doing so I re-installed firefox.

My question is can I retrieve my past firefox data from my back-up drive so I can save all of my bookmarks, history, etc?

Thanks, Gary
