I reinstalled windows yesterday. When I installed firefox and signed it, everything was fine. However, this morning, it seems to have removed 80% of my bookmarks. When I try to restore from the bookmarks yesterday, it just gives me the ones that I have this morning. I had tons and tons of resource bookmarks for my work that would be almost impossible to re-find in some cases due to the current state of search engines. Is there any way to salvage them? It seems like sync believes they never existed, but it DID sync them yesterday??? Please help.

I had to re-install Windows and so I downloaded Firefox again and logged in to my account. I had sync turned on with bookmarks enabled but it wasn't syncing my bookmarks to my computer. I double checked that these sync settings were enabled on the Firefox app on my phone and I tried syncing multiple times. It transferred my passwords and other data but not my bookmarks. So I logged out of Firefox on my computer and phone, then logged back in and synced them together only to find that Firefox deleted all my bookmarks from my account completely (now they don't show up on my phone either). I looked at the forums and saw that they make separate profiles that I could access with about:profiles so I opened that and only saw 2 profiles, neither of which have my bookmarks. Is there a way to recover these since Firefox deleted them out of no where?

Hello, I just tried to import bookmarks to Firefox, however they're not appearing on the title bar?

I imported bookmarks to desktop Firefox 134.0.1 (aarch64) on raspberrypios - 1.0, but the title bar only shows Import Bookmarks... and the imported bookmarks are located in Library -> All Bookmarks -> Bookmarks Toolbar/Bookmarks Menu -> Mozilla Firefox -> Imported Bookmark.

With regard to the instructions at:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profiles#w_restore-to-a-different-location

I'll be moving from an old Windows 10 machine to a new Windows 11 machine. Does that count as "a different location",

...or does "a different location" refer simply to a nonstandard path?

I plan to put the data in the default location on the new machine.
