Bookmarks (FF V2)

Raven · 12-05-2006, 11:03 AM

Hey,

My ff profile has gone corrupt, (can't download $h!t anymore),
So my question is:

How can I move my bookmarks to a new profile?

Regards,

Dean

C:\Documents and Settings\[Windows Username]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default(unless under another profile)\bookmarks.html>>
bookmarkbackups stores the last 5 days

Or you can just open Firefox\Bookmarks\Organize Bookmarks\File>Export
and save them to a convenient location(like My Documents).

To retrieve them, open Firefox under new Profile\Bookmarks\
Organize Bookmarks\File>Import and locate the file you just saved.

How do you even know its your profile thats gone corrupt?

Did you try Standard Diagnostics - Firefox first?

Because a new profile works, old one doesnt

It could be the extensions and themes installed on the old profile, which is the first aspect one troubleshoots. New profile always helps though.
