Reinstating my bookmarks in Firefox

mollieddee

Hi im hoping someone can help me. I recently uninstalled Mozilla Firefox and didnt realise I would lose all my bookmarks. So, on someones advice I did a system restore rather than reinstall which put the FF icon back on my desktop but wouldnt open when I double clicked it. Anyway I reinstalled FF but want to know if its possible to get back the bookmarks. Ive found my Mozilla profile (there were two exactly the same profiles) and although it says a date of 3 years ago when you hover over it, when you open it its only going back to Saturday the 9th June. I hope this makes sense. TIA

Hi santer I exported some that I had on IE but they were old ones from a few years back. Will give your links a go thank you. Since ive reinstalled FF it keeps crashing and losing any tabs I have open and im having to re input all my usernames and passwords.

You could try versions 12 and 13 to see which you get on with better

See what you think of Palemoon, which will run most firefox add ons, and you can export the bookmarks to it so you always have a set if you uninstall one of them

" Why settle for a basic build of your Firefox browser on Windows Operating Systems when you can have one that is specifically made for getting the most out of your system? "
