It's easy to export website url bookmarks or favorites in firefox as either a single file that only firefox understands [.json] or a file that any web browser can open [.html]. However 99.9% of windows users organise their files in windows file explorer directly, especially when they use Internet Explorer favorites, its a faster and better method to organise shortcuts; so why is it not possible to do a copy of Firefox bookmarks directly for use in windows File Explorer; is this a security issue problem that cannot be resolved, presently its certainly impossible for Firefox users!
