Hello Firefox team,

I was experiencing GUI issues using latest Firefox in ubuntu 18. Therefore following some instructions I applied the command: ``` mv .mozilla/firefox/ .mozilla/firefox.bak ``` After that I lost all the bookmarks, passwords and important information

How could I restore that please? I really need the help

Thanks

Note that Firefox likely created a new .mozilla/firefox with a new profile folder, so you nerd to rename/remove the new .mozilla/firefox path.
