How do I import places:sqlite from usb drive to win 11 firefox?
recently bought new desktop and upgraded win10 to win11 in the process (preloaded). I found 'places:sqlite' in win10 firefox and copied it to usb drive. How do I copy it to win11 firefox? i.e. where is the folder containing the sqlite file in win11? will copying the file also place the bookmarks in the win10 firefox locations? Will the layout preferences transfer over (hate to be negative, but I hate the win11 firefox interface that was preloaded on the new win11 machine.) thanks for anyhelp.

Hi,
The following article should answer most of your questions: Restore bookmarks, passwords and data from an old Firefox profile. (Also, see About your important data and their files to learn which files contain which data. In your case, you may also want to copy favicons.sqlite)
That said, if you still have access to your old machine and want to transfer your Firefox data, it would be easier to use Sync or Firefox Backup.
Regarding Firefox layout, I don't think there are any differences between Windows 10 and Windows 11. If you changed any prefs in about:config, try copying prefs.js/user.js (but again, backup/sync should do everything for you).
