Backing up Bookmarks in Firefox


Prudent thing to do.
If you have to reinstall Firefox, or God forbid your entire operating system.
You can just import your old bookmarks from wherever they're backed up.
A CD, Flash Drive or External Hard drive

- Click 'Bookmarks'
- Click 'Organize Bookmarks'
- Click 'File' then 'Export'
- Select the destination
- Save

To restore your bookmarks
- Bookmarks / Organize Bookmarks / File / Import
- Navigate to where you have them backed up.
- Save

Done.

Think of all the time and trouble doing this once a week or so would save you if you had to try and find all your bookmarks using google after a hard drive crash..

Same sort of instructions - With pictures.
