Hello, I have a new PC, and my old hard drive is in installed as an additional hard drive.

Previously, I was using Mozbackup for Thunderbird and Firefox. It restored TB great. It doesn't appear to restore FF at all.

So, I was hoping that from my old drive (drive Q, new OS is C:) that I could somehow import the bookmarks, however I don't see a JSON file for the bookmarks after doing a search on the entire drive.

I have no means to hook the old drive up to a working PC and try extracting that way. Thought I went through all scenarios listed on here, but I may have missed something.

Any advice how I can please restore these bookmarks. Thanks so very much.

Hi, if this is a desktop you can hook it up and just let it dangle out the side. Location of bookmarks are in your Profile here :
