Recently, when I try to access Firefox I get Windows Media Center (WMC) instead. I want to access my old Firefox bookmarks/favorites.

My problem with Firefox/WMC is isolated to one user account. So I set up a new user account, and I can access Firefox there. I'd like to be able to import my Firefox bookmarks/favorites associated with my old user account to my new user account. The instructions I've seen all say to go to the old Firefox account, but I can't get into it. Is there a way to access my old favorites/bookmarks and transfer them to Firefox on my new user account?

There are two, the profile manager and the profile folder that the data is stored in. (If you refreshed at any time this data will be in a folder on the Desktop called "Old Firefox data")

Opening the folder of a new profile and copying the files from the old one to overwrite is a messy hack as well.
