Hi, I updated from win 8.1 to win 10 via a complete install; (fn105fn@yahoo.com; and changed my user name )

Alas, I forgot to back up my bookmarks; very important for my travelling in my motorhome.

Is there a chance where I may find it? Can I reinstall it to my current Firefox?

You can check if you have a C:\Windows.old folder with personal data from Windows 8.1.

The main (root) Firefox profile folder is in a hidden location in AppData\Roaming

  • C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\
