Recently, my Win7 PC failed. I was running the latest Firefox as default browser. Fortunately the C: drive was unharmed in the failure and all data was intact. Unfortunately, after a recent reload of Norton I overlooked including Firefox in the backup data set. My new computer is Win10 (bleagh) with the most current version of Firefox as default browser. What files on the Win7 C: drive contain my bookmarks and how do I get the Win10 version of Firefox to import them?

Wow, even though that thread is 7 years old, the path you need to find on the old disk hasn't changed. :-)

Oh, I'm just a passerby. Hopefully f.ballard will report back.

Thanks to both jonzn4SUSE and jscher2000 I was able to recover all my previous bookmarks.
