I have a bookmark file in Firefox. I want to replace the file - delete the current along with all bookmarks - and import a new HTML bokmark file to act as my primary bookmark list.

How do I do this?

Many thanks

John

You can delete the places.sqlite files and all JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups or move them to another folder if you want to keep a copy.
Then you can import this HTML file.
