Arrgh, Stupid firefox deleted my bookmarks.


Recommended Posts

This just happened to me too after Firefox decided to "update" my addons, which it didn't. It just reset everything including my bookmarks. :no:

Oh well, blame yourself for not taking backup.

You should Find Bookmark Backups here

C:\Documents and Settings\*Your Username*\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*RandomCrap*

Should be a file called

bookmarks.bak

or a folder called

bookmarkbackups

Foxmarks is a good program to keep the bookmarks backed up.

Thanks, but it didn't save my bookmarks. :(

Ah well, fresh start. Atleast now I can make my bookmarks into folders and not messy

maybe you could use a file recovery app to recover any html files (ff's bookmark files are html file, non?) - worth a go, might get an old copy, might be most recent. Might get nothing.

If you really want your bookmarks back try a system restore.

This has happened to me a few times, happens when firefox crashes on me and restarts, but luckily mine are backed up.

Lol i have a backup drive 80gb and i lost that too once! 73GB OF PURE DATA!

Everything i ever coded

School work

Music

Downloads

Games

All important software!

Anyways.

I don't see how firefox can reset everything when updating addons :s

Sure it wasn't a faulty addon?

What addons did you have installed?
