Help with recovering saved bookmarks under my username?

I could not remember my pw today when trying to get bookmarks back on this computer, so reset, thinking I would otherwise be locked out --now I'm not seeing an option to sync bookmarks. I'd love to get back these bookmarks--a treasure trove of resources gathered over 9 years. Any help greatly appreciated!

Ask your IT to extract your user folder from the old drive:

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox

or via shortcut

%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox
