Yesterday I installed the new HDD on my laptop and I installed the operating system and even downloaded Firefox and installed it. Since the old HDD in part is usable, I connected it by USB and I can see almost all of the files and folders, I went to my program files and searched and for the old Firefox program and thought I could copy/paste the old bookmark folder, and I did, to my disappointment when nothing showed up on it. What can I do to save all my bookmarks?
