I used Firefox for 2 years, upgraded to Quantum, bookmarks and bookmark toolbar are not there. how do I get these items back?

I have the bookmark icon but there are no bookmarks there. I imported bookmarks from Internet Explorer, but they were older and not all the current bookmarks were there. Thank you.

Hi CruiseMissile, hopefully your bookmarks are not completely lost.

Bookmarks Toolbar and Bookmarks Menu button (main toolbar)

To add those back:

Toolbar

Choose any of these methods to show the toolbar list and select the bar there:

  • right-click (on Mac Ctrl+click) a blank spot on the tab bar (or the "+" button)
  • (menu bar) View > Toolbars
    On Windows, tap the Alt key to activate the menu bar temporarily.
  • in Customize mode > Show/Hide Toolbars (see: Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars)

Menu button

Either:

(A) Use the Customize panel (Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars) to drag the icon to the desired spot on the toolbar

(B) Use the method from Bookmarks in Firefox - section entitled: How do I add the Bookmarks Menu button to the toolbar?

  • Click the "Library" button:
  • Click "Bookmarks"
  • Click "Bookmarking Tools"
  • Click "Add Bookmarks Menu to Toolbar"

Bookmarks / Backups

If the bookmarks are missing everywhere you look, you might need to try restoring a bookmark backup.

However, first I suggest exiting out of Firefox normally (using the menu) and starting Firefox back up again in case there is a transient file permission error. In some cases, you may need to shut down and restart Windows.

Once you rule that out, see this article for how to restore a bookmark backup:

Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer

Success?
