I have pages of bookmarks from years of reseach. I do not want to loose these, but cannot open Firefox to save them. How do I fix the problem, as well as saving my bookmarks?

Usually when this happens it just means that Firefox didn't completely quit the previous time for some reason. You can go to the task manager and quit the firefox process and probably be back in business. If you run into more trouble check out our help article about it - "Firefox is already running but is not responding" error - How to fix
