Recover your Firefox bookmarks
November 15th, 2006
Some I discovered recently, which I thought I should share, is that Firefox automatically backs up your bookmarks file every day for 5 days. This information came in handy recently when my father-in-law told me he lost all of his bookmarks. Something was corrupt with his profile, but his bookmarks were still there! To find the backups in Windows XP, go to C:\Documents and Settings\[your profile name]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\[firefox profile name]\bookmarkbackups and you’ll see the last five days worth of bookmark backups.
