Internet Explorer Favorites are intact, but Firefox bookmarks disappeared. Shady shot from Microsoft!
OK, so I found my backups. That's how I did it.
1 make sure you can see hidden files/folders - in Explorer in Windows 8, click view, and then make sure that "hidden object" is checked
2. go to:
\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\c9i1rqwk.default\bookmarkbackups C:\Windows.old\Users\ < yourusername >3. I copied the newest .json file from here to my office
4. open Firefox, then open the bookmarks library
5. click on import and backup, and then restore, then "Choose file". Identify the .json your desktop file.
That's what me sorted. If all goes well it can help you.

How can I restore my G61 laptop to a smaller drive?
Tried to replace my hard drive of 250 GB with a 240 GB sdd using the restore disks that I created when I have my laptop. The only option available in the Recovery Manager is resetting Factoy; Microsoft System Restore and recovery system are both greyed out. When I select Factory Reset I get an error stating "this computer's hard drive is smaller than the original shipped the drive. The recovery process may not continue. Why can I not just a system recovery?
Hello:
I don't think you can do a system restore for the same reason that you can't do a recovery using recovery disks.
There is a solution for you if you can read the product of 25-character windows product key 7 on the bottom of your laptop.
If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.
Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.
Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.
http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.
The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.
Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.
Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

How can I restore original pre bookmarks?
While trying to remove a couple of the original bookmarks, I accidently deleted ALL of them. How to make a comeback? I backed up my personal stuff... photos and such, bu t I see not Favorites in this set and in the manual it is said that bookmarks are never backed up by the backup utility in the meadow.
Even if I can't restore bookmarks exactly as their icons appeared, I'd settle for their URLs.
Thank you!
You can't get the bookmarks to return, but the oriinal URL are.
