Yes Sam. I tried to restore, and I tried to convert to html.
In both cases, for all the files in bookmarksbackup dir, I

I'm confused about how you're trying to do the convert to html. You
should open Firefox using the old profile. Go to the bookmarks window
and use the "export to html" option. Then in the new profile, you go
to the bookmarks window and use the "import from html" option.
I am just not sure how in tarnation all of them could get corrupted????
I even tried to decompress with "lz4 -d" command,
but the command said:
Error 44 : Unrecognized header : file cannot be decoded
They started using this before there was a standard lz4 header. See
https://github.com/avih/dejsonlz4 for a way to uncompress them.
OK, I downloaded the dejsonlz4 tarball, and built it, and used it on one
of the backup files.
Now, in order to import it as html, I need to convert it to html first.
I do not see a tool that readily converts json to html.
There are websites that let you paste the json text and they output html
text.
I have not found sites that let you upload the json file, and give you
the url to download the html output file.
