Hello,

Firefox automatically creates backups of your bookmarks, which can be helpful if your bookmarks are lost or missing. To recover them, follow the instructions below.

1. Use one of these methods to open the Bookmarks Library window:
   • Firefox 29 and above: Click the Bookmarks button and select Show All Bookmarks.
   • Previous Firefox versions: Click the Firefox button and click on Bookmarks. (If you don't have a Firefox button, click the Bookmarks button or Bookmarks menu item and select Show All Bookmarks.)
2. At the top of the Library window, click on Import and Backup and select Restore.
3. Click the date of the bookmark backup you want to recover.
4. In the new window that appears, click OK.
5. Your bookmarks from the selected date should now be restored.

For more information, see the Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer article. For other solutions, see the Recover lost or missing Bookmarks article.

Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

Thank you.

Yes it restored my bookmarks just as you said. Thank you for posting the procedure. It was so easy, especially after spending tens of hours searching for a way to recover them after losing them with some "make it better" command I tried.
