I have installed Firefox on my new computer but some bookmarks did not transfer from my old computer. This includes those bookmarks shich displayed on my old computer only when I clicked on "search bookmarks." When I click "search bookmarks" on the new computer, it only displays bookmarks I have visited on the new computer. New computer is running Windows 11. How do I transfer these bookmarks to my new computer? Thank you.

See these links. You need to copy the files with Firefox closed.
