I want to do a reinstall but i cant find the folder with my bookmarks anywhere but need to back them up, any ideas? * +

carta 9.11.10 - 09:03am
did you save them first ? default location stored is documents look for a html file * +

they are saved in firefox, i even went into bookmark manager to save them to a different location but all it saved was a 'boolmarks-2010-11-09.json0 file which is only 32kb, surely this cant be all my bookmarks? * +

bookmarks / organize bookmarks / import and backup / export html * +

Tried all that but only saves as 1 file, hope thats it as i have started to reinstall now. * +

carta 9.11.10 - 09:39am
it should save one html file titled bookmarks * +

theres a better way for firefox... you can actually save entire settings... bookmarks, addons, themes... everything... just copy folder from C:/Users/username/AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles there will be folder with strange name.. like oab8ey4p.default... it's different name on each installation as firefox creates name randomly... but copy/paste that folder onto new installation... * +

actually that 'bookmarks-2010-11-09.json0 file is your entire bookmarks file backed up, alternatively you can go through carta's route and export as html, or metulj method and save the entire folder or you can get a program called mozbackup and it will backup all your addons, bookmarks, setting... everything that has to do with firefox even extensions. *
