    You can have a fix for these by following the steps under .
    1. in the location bar try to type about:config
    2. after this have a click on "I'll be careful, I promise"

    i found some solution which will help in thsi issue after searching on net.
    in RUN dialog box try by typing "%appdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles" after thsi open the "xxxx.default" folder

    and you will be able to see "bookmarkbackups" folder . open it and your bookmarks will be present there. you are able to import the bookmarks again in the Firefox

    i think your browser has gone corrupt due to the uncomplete installation and i think that you should make a complete reinstalltion of it and to the top thing replace the setup file of your Firefox and make a new download copy and then install. there will be chances that there are corrupt setup files in your way, after this make sure that you have the add ons running well.

    i think if you are facing major problems with this browser and it is necessary for you to have bookmarks available then you should look out for various other browsers as they do function well and render a good service.

    make all hidden files enable and then you should see
    1. C:/Documents and Settings/user name/Application Data/Mozilla/Firefox/profiles/z58ev2bl.default/bookmarksbackups
    2. and i can state here that you should try by Opening Firefox window and then to the Bookmarks >>Organize Bookmarks>>File>>Import>>From file and then in My computer in c drive , Documents and Settings>>User name>>Application Data>>Mozilla Firefox and then to profiles>>z58ev2bl.default and finally to bookmarkbackups
    3. have a replace of your “user name” with your desired username .
    4. choose recent saved bookmarks present in the list of bookmarks shown .
