I restarted my computer not long ago because my internet wasn't working. (I didn't install anything and haven't for a while, at least 2 weeks.)

When I opened firefox, somehow over half my bookmarks disappeared. :(

Where did they go and how do I get them back?
 
I don't know, but the same thing happened to me about a month ago. I lost all of my bookmarks.
 
thanks diGriz!! my bookmarks are restored! yay!!

:marshmallow::dancing: :lock:


btw....are you married? :o

see, it doesn't take much to make women happy, for me its just everything working the way it should and everything in its proper place!
 
maybe I'm tired but I'm not finding the fix.

Restoring bookmarks from backup

* The import bookmarks feature of the Bookmarks Manager will add the contents of any bookmark backup to your current bookmarks.

1.
* Firefox: "Bookmarks -> Organize (or Manage) Bookmarks... -> File -> Import... -> from File"
* Mozilla Suite: "Bookmarks -> Manage Bookmarks... -> Tools -> Import..."
2. When the file picker appears, navigate to the folder that contains the bookmarks file you wish to use and select that file. Windows 2000 and XP users can navigate to the bookmarks backup folder typing "%APPDATA%" in the file field and pressing Enter, going into Mozilla then Firefox, then Profiles, then xxxxxxxx.default (where xxxxxxx is any sequence of numbers and characters), then the bookmarkbackups folder [2].
 
Don't forget to export them now & then. It's real easy to do & you can then import them back if something happens. Or import them to another browser.
