<p>... if that piece of code is a clue to look for an option, I can't find anything related to that code in about:config. Unless you're hinting to change the code and recompile Firefox myself, using a different interval set in the code I mean.

<p>Is there any way to increase the frequency of Firefox doing that?

There is an old setting for Firefox to export bookmarks to an HTML-format file at shutdown. But that's much less predictable than daily:

<p>I don't shutdown/restart Firefox very often, usually only when Windows requires a reboot due to updates, other wise I always put the system in hibernate with everything running. So I'm looking for a way to regularly export/backup bookmarks while Firefox is running. More often than once a day I mean.

</p>Firefox does do automatic bookmarks backups daily when they are changed or the day that they are cha2019-11-19T23:06:04-08:00the-edmeisterhttps://support.mozilla.org/zu/questions/1273313#answer-1267777<p>Firefox does do automatic <strong>bookmarks backups</strong> daily when they are changed or the day that they are changed, but I wouldn't call that an <em><strong>export</strong></em>. Exporting of Bookmarks is in a <strong>bookmarks.html</strong> file, where the backups are in the <em><strong>json / jsonmz4</strong></em> format. An HTML file export would be "imported"; where a json / jsonmz4 file would be "restored" to recover or restore a users bookmarks. And HTML appends any existing bookmarks, where json / jsonmz4 will overwrite any existing bookmarks.
