Rebuilding my system after HD crash I need a way to restore my bookmarks from backup html file. FF96 only has import options for MS browsers. In the FF96 menu (upper right of window) there once was a "Manage Bookmarks" with pull down options. Can someone steer me to a solution to restore my old bookmarks??

Hello, I have my most used bookmarks in the "Bookmark Menu" folder. The other bookmarks are in folders located in the " Other Bookmarks" folder and I have 6 links in the "Bookmarks Toolbar".

When I need to backup I use Export Bookmarks to HTML and save on PC.

Problem is that when I use Import Bookmarks from HTML, all folders are empty including Bookmarks Toolbar. All the missing links are now added to the bottom in Bookmark Menu. I now have to cut and paste the links back into the empty folders.

Why are the links not going back to the same place when importing back.

I bookmarked a number of tabs in the past few weeks and suddenly all of my recent bookmarks are no longer present. I am able to add new ones but I don't know what happened to the ones that have disappeared.

Firefox version: 95.0.1 x64 on Linux Mint 19.1, running in safe-mode

As title says, the 'Mobile Bookmarks' folder synced from a Firefox Android aren't saved when exporting the bookmarks to an HTML file. They ARE saved during 'Backup to a JSON' but HTML with 20,000 bookmarks is much easier to edit than a JSON (unless anyone has a handy and quick JSON editor recommendation?).

So bug, or notbug?

ls, Yesterday morning I had 1724 bookmarks . Last night 3448 , (1724 double). This morning Firefox completely removed from the PC and reinstalled. result: 1724 bookmarks. A few hours later again 3448. Anyone know how I can correct this? I don't think it is possible to remove the duplicate in a fast way.

To make matters worse, Waterfox mimicked its big brother .result: also double bookmarks. Sincerely, Henknan

Firefox pushed an update on me today. When I re-launched after the update, I had none of my bookmarks or plugins!

Logged in using the email account I *believe* I had been using, and two menubar bookmarks appeared, but the drop-down menu is missing everything else I had previously!  :(

Looking in the FF settings folder, it looks like there is a folder with other account settings, but I do not know how to identify which is which, nor do I know how to copy over settings from the other account...

Help?

Thanks,

After today's Firefox update my bookmarks menu now has a black background how can i change it back to a white background with black font? I added a dark theme which changed the bookmarks menu background to a black background.

Thank you very much in advance

When I go to create a new bookmark in firefox I find that the file name is already allocated, and that file name is appearing on all old bookmarks as well. Instead of saying Other Bookmarks it says Location. This is only happening since I moved to Version 95.0 I have had to stop trying to create new bookmarks, and would appreciate any help I can get.
