Restore Firefox Bookmarks ??
 

"Upgraded" wife's machine to XP Pro from Win2K.

Firefox bookmarks disappeared.

Searching her C: drive I found them in an htm file.

How do I restore them?

Thanks!

Copy the "profiles" folder, from wherever it was in the old Firefox
path, something like

C:\Documents and Settings\John Larkin\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox

on top of wherever the new, mostly empty one is.

Well there is the book:

Firefox and Thunderbird Beyond Browsing and Email by Peter D Hipson.

Not that I'd be flogging my own book, of course. GDR
