How to restore the bookmarks after an emergency backup who left only the bare remnants files of Mozilla?

Stats: Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit operating system. Currently using Firefox 22.0.

Details: Before that, I had an outdated version of Firefox are installed which I do not know which one it was. It may be 2-3 versions before version 22.0. I had a few hundred Favorites on Firefox when my computer became suddenly blue screen and I quickly restored it using emergency backup software that is built with the computer. It basically restored the computer while safeguarding * MOST * files from the previous installation.

Fast forward, I went to see if I could pick my favorites, but only left value files were in the APPDATA roaming and APPDATA local files. This is the profile folders, but there is virtually nothing in it that can be opened or used. As records skeletons without meat. There are thumbnails of Web sites previous that I visited on the last installation, and that has been about it.

I tried to see if I could copy the old empty profiles folder in an attempt to use the Profile Manager and paste it into the new installation of Firefox, but I couldn't open the Profile Manager.

I read the articles that have been recommended by the website so feel free to submit your questions and assistance. Anything help! I have re-learned a useful lesson, always save your bookmarks!

How can I return my favorites?

Oh not at all, it's my fault for not not being prepared. It's a good lesson to learn to always save files especially with huge storage of our days. Back in the old days, they would use the floppy drives that were considered the height of storage technology!

No, I have never had an account to sync with Firefox but will have to keep in mind for future cases of lost bookmarks. However, what was lost is found again! One way or another!

Thanks for the suggestions!

  • How to restore the system recovery files to their original location? (HP Pavilion p6540F desktop computer)

    I have a desktop HP Pavilion P6540F under Windows 7 Home Premium. A few days ago there was a problem with windows that virtually wiped out my OS and I had to restore my computer to factory settings. Before restoring my computer I backed up all my files on a disk. After Reinstalling windows, I placed the drive with all my files recovery on it in my computer and running the recovery .exe file that has started downloading my files. All of this worked perfectly well but the problem is that these files only stored in a file on my desktop and has not been restored to its original location. Is it possible to get these files to restore to the correct locations on my computer without having to manually, drag the files to their old location? Honestly, I don't know where many of these files were located before the restoration and many items such as preferences for certain programs are impossible for me to move. Thanks for the help.

    The backup that is used to recover only restores the files in a folder, leaving the owner to move. I agree, not the application of backup more useful, but better than nothing I guess.

    Previously, the icons of the add-on modules (e.g., noscript, weather or reminders) were displayed at the bottom of my screen and I could click on them to run the corresponding function. Now, they are not displayed, and I don't know how to get back them. I am particularly interested to return noscript as I almost always use it, but I regularly consulted a large number of modules of the missing information bar now. I don't even know what we call this information/icon/display bar.

    == I don't know - an involuntary strike?

    It is possible that the screen is too high and that the status bar and the scroll bar fall down.

    Open the system menu via Alt + space and see if you can resize the window.
    If it works, then close Firefox to save the setting.

  • How to restore the previous user files

    Hello

    I did 3 times until I noticed this.

    1. install Java JDK.

    2 android Studio (SDK)

    3 tried to show hidden files

    Last action, I did because I saw in my App folder (for android developers) user folder.

    I 207 GB of various files under my user folder, so I realized that it would take a lot of time to go through all the files, and my computer was looking

    for hidden files, I cancelled the operation. Then I changed the settings in the properties of this folder not to display hidden files. My computer started to do something new. Within a certain time (computer is still indexing files) I decided that I need to see hidden files, so I canceled the operation and restarted - show hidden files.

    Later, I restored my system using the system restore before step 1. Install Java JDK.

    My settings are to restore files, but as I noticed through my system devoted only 9 GB (I have 207 GB of various files under my user folder).

    If I go to the properties of folder-> Previous Versions, I can see all the missing files there but if I try to restore it will short 11FR and somewhere in the middle of system restore even just restore. I could just copy the files manually but there is a lot of work and I have only 25 GB left.

    I think that it (indexing) pointing to existing files because they are there because if I click on my user account properties, it shows me the 207 GB in size.  For example: folder my pictures shows 4.7 GB, but 2 files inside I see have only 38MB. Photos are not hidden or system files?

    "Show files and folders" are an instant response option, it does not take any of the computer when dealing with this change and make sure that the files appear.  He has no real scan/find the files when you use this option and is completely unrelated to the index which is a separate search function.

    Are you referring to your photo or picture library folder?  The library can contain many other places.
