removed from my drive hard to the factory settings but saved the FF record I can / how can I import bookmarks?

due to a virus or something that I had to wipe my computer to its factory settings, but before I did, I made a copy of the FF in my programs. is it possible to import my favorites folder? and how would I do it?

If you have saved the Firefox installation directory (default location C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) you lost your bookmarks.

Bookmarks and other data from the user are stored in the profile folder, on Windows XP, it is normally located inside this folder - C:\Documents and Settings\ < Windows user/login name > \Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\

If you saved the profile folder, you can use the process in the article of the recovery of data from an old profile to copy the files to your current profile folder.

  • Reset factory settings but the recovery disc is not recognized

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6-3030sd laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium installed OA.

    I want to restore it to factory settings, but is not possible using Recovery Manager, because he does not see my recovery Partition.

    Since I have recovery discs, I tried to restore my factory settings using the recovery discs.

    However, it is also not possible. Even after setting my BIOS (boot order first DVD player) the laptop not start using the DVD player.

    Then performed several actions (eventally I still adjusted registry) as mentioned by microsoft: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060/en-us?

    Still not possible to start using a DVD player.

    It goes the same for USB.

    I can use my DVD player and USB but I can't boot from them.

    How do I restore my laptop to factory settings?

    I still have my product key and I was able to record an English version of Windows 7 Home Premium x 64 as an image on a DVD.

    What can I do?

    Is it possible to mount it on my virtual DVD drive (BD - ROM drive) (so the picture of windows 7 in the virtual DVD drive and then install it?)

    I hope that there is someone out there who is able to help me!

    Hello

    Sometimes just set the boot priority in the bios menu does not work as it should.

    Try the following.

    Insert your 1st recovery disk, and then click stop the laptop.

    Now on TAP the ESC key as soon as you start the launch of the laptop Boot Menu.

    Select boot options ( f9 ), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER.  You can also get a prompt to "Press any key to" continuous - it if requested.

    How to get Vista recovery Media or the Vista recovery Partition on your computer back to factory settings.

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

    Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  • Is it possible possible to recover my data from my drive hard after receipt of this error message is the reference to hal.dll

    This error message is on a Windows XP Home Edition.

    «Windows has not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: Windows root\system32\hal.dll»

    This occurred after the use of the Norton Symantec solution to get rid of malware Tidserv activity.  After trying to restart my computer after the removal of the malware, assuming she was kidnapped, I got this error message.  I had backed up my important files on an external hard drive some time ago, but I still want to recover from this if possible.  It is an old Dell Dimension 3000 series and I don't have the CD that came with that installation.

    Thank you

    You could use another method to start your computer (like a Knoppix/Ubuntu or Hiren boot CD) and copy them to your personal data to an external device, you can move/slave your HARD drive to another system and see if you can copy the data off that way.

    This could work, but for me this looks like a lot of trouble and I only take it only after having exhausted all other methods of fixing what you have.

    Assuming you want to fix what you have (or at least make an effort to do so)...

    Despite what the message said, interpret it as meaning that XP just cannot find the file or XP is told to find the file in the right place.  This means not the file is missing or damaged - XP just cannot find it.

    There are two things to do that don't require to have an installation CD:

    run a chkdsk/r from the XP Recovery Console
    you rebuild the file c:\boot.ini from the XP Recovery Console

    Start with the chkdsk command, and here's how:

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination? (This includes the plug pulling, buttons power and removing the battery).

    These can cause corruption in the file system that must be fixed before you do anything else.

    If none of these events occurred (or even if they have not taken place), you must verify the integrity of your file system before anything else (especially "try" things).

    There is zero logic to begin to try to begin to try to modify or copy files to a hard drive that has a corrupted file system, so this must first be fixed using the XP chkdsk program and run chkdsk on your hard drives may solve your problem completely.

    Use the XP Recovery Console to check the file system on your HARD drive and fix the problems and then try to start your system - this may be all you need to do.  Or, you are welcome to just start trying things that might work.

    Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

    If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

    This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

    You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

    The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

    xp_rec_con. ISO

    Download the ISO from here:

    http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

    Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

    http://www.ImgBurn.com/

    When you install ImgBurn, DO NOT install the Ask toolbar.

    Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

    http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

    It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

    You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

    When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

    Press any key to boot from CD...

    Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

    Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

    Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

    You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

    You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

    C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

    The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

    For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

    A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

    In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

    Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

    Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

    CHKDSK C: /r

    Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

    It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

    You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

    Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

    You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

    You normally have to boot from the recovery disc:

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to perform a recovery of the recovery hard disk Partition.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    For any questions/problems about the recovery process, you will need to contact the manufacturer of the computer.

  • To the OS to drive HARD internal new internal SDS with 1 single socket (so I can connect only to 1 at a time)

    Hello

    I want to improve my netbook by changing my old and slow a new SSD HDD, but I expect a BIG PROBLEM. My computer is running Win7 Original from an OEM (Dell). Microsoft won't give me an ISO of Win7 OS file because the OEM must (when I enter the key of product before downloading, it tells me that Dell must provide me with ISO). Dell will provide an ISO file or a bootable USB key because their customer support is BAD. The problem is that I have no idea how to do to transfer the Win7OS from the old HDD to the new SSD.

    I considered the cloning of my old internal HARD drive to my new internal SSD, but given that only one of them can be pluged simultaneously (only 1 plug into the motherboard), I don't see how I could do this. I'm not an expert on cloning of hard drives, so you might know something escapes me. IF YOU DO, PLEASE TELL ME.

    Please consider that I also have a HARD drive external that I could use, if necessary, to transfer the OS (example: 1. clone the OS from the HARD internally for the external HARD disk drive.) 2. replace the drive HARD internal with the new internal SSD and 3. Clone the operating system from the external HARD drive to international it SSD. I have no idea if this is possible or how to make STEP 3 of this example. I don't know even if the external HARD disk clone can function as a bootable disc). Also, consider that this netbook is not a CD/DVD unit.

    I would appreciate your opinions, experience and solutions for this problem,

    Thank you very much!!

    Hello

    Thank you for being part of the Microsoft Community.

    Alternatively, you can perform an installation of the operating system directly to an SSD instead of the transfer option.

  • I want to restore my VAIO to factory settings, but I had to replace the D drive. Problems?

    I got VPCJ113fx/b for 2.5 years.  A year ago, the door of the external drive has failed and I got a new drive (non-usine) installed.  The computer has recently developed unrelated problems (Control Panel can not 'see' two installs of IE, Windows Update runs isn't more and others).  I would like to recover the original Windows settings.  I've got Carbonite data files are no problem.  The process of rescue/restore the control panel still works even if the current D drive is out of sync with the news of factory stored on the computer?  (If I have an emergency disk, I created when the machine was new or I would try to create a set of disks I could create now.)  I'm trying to think this through, but there's just too much I do not know the answers to.)

  • How to extend my drive C use unallocated space on my drive hard if the option "extend volume" is grayed out?

    I'm trying to erase my drives and have a clean reinstall of Windows 7. Endless hedges have attempted to quit of me, whose latest is my drive C is not able to use the unallocated space that was once my D drive (now deleted).

    I am interested in disk management and you can see my drive C, BDEDrive (I don't know what it is and can't get a straight answer on it as of yet), unallocated and free space (I do not understand the difference between space and unallocated space) in that order.

    I want a big C 1 TB drive, but can't seem to extend the C drive currently because it is grayed out.

    SOLVED!

    [for reference]
    It's also easy to move the startup information in the BDEDrive and giving the computer reboot, and then delete the BDEDrive. After that, the free space can be deleted (it becomes unallocated) and all unallocated space can be swallowed up by the C drive now that the option "Extend Volume" became available.

  • Drive hard not in my computer but device and computer management Manager

    Hi all... I have some extremely important irreplaceable files on my second hard drive. Today, I bought an external to save them, and when I turned on my computer, I was unable to get the disk. The drive is listed as "RAW".

    Then I tried to start to recover files of any programs online, they just finally estimate a 35 hour and counting wait and then my computer crashed. So I restarted and now the drive is unrecognizable in "My Computer" but it is listed in the device (such as a storage device) Manager

    I tried 2 diff computers and also 2 different external case with the same result.

    For any help or suggestion is very appreciated!

    Thank you!

    Hello DMoneyPros,

    • What is the status of the hard disk in disk management?
    • Your external hard drive appears as a raw management disk or hard drive Partition?

    If the disk hard not not display in Windows Explorer appears in disk management, this means that the hard disk is raw and is not formatted?

    You should try to assign the drive letter of the hard disk in the disk management and check if it appears in Windows Explorer:

    Change the drive letter:

    1. open computer management by clicking the Start button, click on the Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance, clicking Administrative Tools, and then double-click computer management. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    2. in the Navigation pane, click Disk Management.

    3. right click on the partition or drive that you want to change and then click on change drive letter and paths.

    4. to change a drive letter, click on edit, click on assign the following drive letter, click the letter you want to use and then click OK.

    Googling didn't help me in the last 24 hours, but surely there must be a way to do it-right?

    Thank you very much
    Anthony

    Yes, there is a way to restore your bookmarks from your old laptop to the new. Note that profiles just replace the contents of the old folder will not work because your profiles.ini file contains a different profile name.

    How to restore your bookmarks, please read this article: safeguarding your information.
