When I backup my data files, I want to include my bookmarks. What folders and/or files do I need to include in my backup routine?
Running Windows XP. Using "ntbackup" to do the job. All software resides on C:, all of my data files are on a second physical drive E:.

Firefox stores the bookmarks and the browser history in places.sqlite and no longer uses an HTML file or creates an HTML backup for the bookmarks.
There are 10 daily rotating JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups folder within the Firefox profile folder, one for each day that Firefox is started.
You can make Firefox create an automatic HTML backup (bookmarks.html) when you exit Firefox if you set the pref browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML to true on the about:config page that you can open via the location bar.
