vista restore Favorites

Hi Please help.
I backed up my favorites on my Win Vista, now I have upgraded to Win 8 and I want to restore it in bookmarks. A lot of websites that I had an automatic log-in. It doesn't let me do.

If there is no solution I have to re - install vista back on my log-ins.

When you have installed, what happened to your old user folder? In particular, you do not find the current location of the old folder:

C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox

If you have still this folder, you can explore the your Firefox profile folder and copy the files that store connections most in your current Firefox settings. This article can help: recovering data from an old profile.

For quick access to your current Firefox settings/profile folder, you can use

Help > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.

A little luck?

  • My computer has been infected with "Windows Vista restore" what should I do to get rid of him?

    The fake security program Window Vista restore"scans my computer and tells me I have several hard drive errors.  It has blocked access to my computers system restore and defragment utility, appeared to 'clear' all my files (like images taxes) and I get the error pop ups telling me to turn off the computer because "hard drive failures.  When I click on cancel, x or anywhere on the box, the system stops.   When I restart, the same fake program starts begins to scan my computer again.  I tried running my Trend Antivirus scan and when the scan is about 99% complete, the fake program does not scan continue.  What should I do to get rid of him?  I'm asked to pay for an upgrade of the software, but have not entered my card number.  I'm afraid that my data has been hacked... including the loss of my photo albums.  I'm currently installing updates to windows on the computer.  Will he get rid of it?

    Hello

    do you mean Windows Recovery?

    read this:

    Windows Vista Recovery is a program of analysis and optimization of fake computer that displays false information in order to scare you into believing that there is a problem with your computer. Recovery of Windows Vista is installed via Trojan horses that display fake error messages and warnings of security on the infected computer. These messages will state that there is something wrong with the hard drive of your computer, and then suggests that you download and install a program that can solve the problem. When you click on these alerts, recovery of Windows Vista will be automatically downloaded and installed on your computer.

    Once installed, Windows Vista Recovery will be configured to start automatically when you log in to Windows. Once started, several error messages appear when you try to launch programs or delete files. Windows Vista Recovery will then prompt you to scan your computer, which will then find a variety of errors, he said, he can't fix until you purchase the program. When you use the defragmentation tool called it will specify that it should run in Mode safe and show then a background in Mode Safe false who pretended to defragment your computer. As this program is a scam do not be scared by buying the program when you see its alerts.

  • How can I restore Favorites after migration to the cloud?

    This weekend, we migrated our computer system in the cloud. I was under the assumption that we were only migrate our email to the cloud.

    However, when I got to the office yesterday, I have Firefox was longer on my computer and subsequently were my favorites.

    I looked at a multitude of messages and what is seen on the fact that all is lost. I looked at the files on the C: drive and the only thing that is in these folders are what I did yesterday and today. Is it all the same to find my data from last Friday?

    Thank you
    Mike

    "This weekend we migrated our computer system in the cloud."

    What was the purpose of the 'us' who did this?
    That allows you to save the user data for the purposes of upgrading a server or software on the server?
    Each user backup up to their own data, or was this fact for all users massively by the COMPUTER service company?
    Whatever it is, you have access to the saved data in the "cloud"?
    If not you personally, IT department access to these data and restore?

    Overall, my guess is that your Firefox data has not been saved then your user account on a shared central server has been deleted or "gone" due to a system upgrade. And then when the user accounts have been restored data Firefox wasn't there.
    Shear speculation on my part, without much more information on what has been done.

  • HP OEM Vista restore disks work after installing Windows 7 RC?

    The title of the post pretty much everything says. I would like to try the Windows 7 RC, but I also wish I could go back to Vista, at some point. It seemed that the restore disks did not have a complete reinstall the last time (it resets windows pretty quickly). If I load Windows 7 RC, I'll be able to use my restore disks from HP to postpone Vista on my system?

    Thank you

    Pete

    If your specific working set of restore disks really depends on if they were created successfully; However, a set of disks of restoration work should certainly work. At least with my CL Pavillion DV-4-1287, Recovery Manager also continued to work after an upgrade to Windows 7, then a reinstallation via clean install without shaped.  Initially, he works with none of the additional steps, in the second, I just need to copy the application on of c:windows.old\program files (x 86) \sminst.  Unless you have reason to do so, while a clean install is the best route, I wouldn't do a format with a clean install, since all your drivers are stored in the Windows.old folder and (dependent on model) the swsetup folder.  Windows 7 can not find the drivers for all devices (five in my case) but on my machine all drivers Vista has of worked - just needed to point the manual driver update function to the appropriate folded equal windows.old or swsetup. BTW, while drivers Vista came with my laptop running Windows 7, the same is not true for some recent updates on the website.

    Oh, one last thing would be to update the BIOS before installing Windows 7 from the Flash of the bios Setup program is not yet certified for Windows 7 (no surprise since it's always a BONE development)...

  • How can I restore Favorites button to the Bookmarks Toolbar?

    I did all of the remedies detailed in helping restore the Favorites button to the bookmarks toolbar, but nothing helped. The favorite button is still missing from my bookmarks toolbar.

    He disappeared last night when a few cosmetic changes appeared on my Navigation bar.

    I had previously imported my Internet Explorer Favorites, but they are buried deep in the bookmarks menu and do not add a new favorite - so they are not practical to use.

    If I could synchronize my favorites to my favorites, I could finally give up favorites in favor bookmarks - but apparently Firefox does not provide this possibility.

    Disappearance of the favorite bookmarks toolbar button makes it practically unusable Firefox for me - unless I can find a solution.

    I have no Add-ons and no new plugin that could cause this problem.

    I solved the problem by a suggestion on the support Forum: I just exported my favourites, as a HTML file, from Internet Explorer 8.0 on the desktop. Then I imported the file Firefox by selecting import bookmarks in HTML... under the import and backup button in the toolbar of library.

    Finally, I closed and reopened Firefox. There was my favorite button once more on the bookmarks toolbar.

  • Re: Satellite L300 - 18 d - how can I get a Vista restore disk?

    Hello world

    My laptop (Satellite L300 - 18 d) has been seriously infected by viruses, all corrupt. I need to resinstall Vista but do not have the restore disc. After searching around, I managd to download a restore disk of some sites, but when I used this disc, it gave me an error code which meant the product key was wrong. I used the product key from the bottom of the laptop (I trust this is an OEM). So I guess I need a restore disk that works with my OEM product key.

    How can I get the restore disc that will work with my OEM license?

    Also, I tried to install XP on my laptop, but it kept giving me a message saying that it could not detect the hard drive, there is nothing wrong with the hard drive, I tested it on another laptop. Is there an any obstacle o install XP on this laptop that came with Vista of origin. Is there a security Messure somewhere that I collapsed to install XP?

    Thanks in advance

  • Re: Satellite X 200: Vista restore after format low-level HARD drive

    Hello

    I would like to know if the CD of my Satellite X 200 recovery tools is able to restore my drive after a low-level format?

    Waiting for them, thanks a lot.

    Hello

    The use of the Toshiba Recovery CD would be to format the whole HARD drive and to relocate again the entire image of Toshiba.
    This means that all the operating system Windows Vista, Toshiba drivers, tools and additional software would be installed on your HARD drive 200 X.

    I hope this is the information that you need.

    If you only have the restoration of out of the box Vista or Vista SP1, it is not supported.

    You must have the Vista SP2 for extended support.

    Here's the advice I give to posters for a reinstallation:

    Click Start > right click on computer > left click on properties > see if you have Vista 32 bit or Vista 64-bit installed.

    It will also tell you which SP you have installed.

    Then, choose the download of 'bit' OK to use to install Service Packs, installation of SP1 first if it is not already installed.

    Vista SP1 32-bit (x 86): http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30

    Vista SP1 64-bit: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=21299

    Vista SP2 32-bit (x 86): http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=16468

    Vista SP2 64-bit: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17669

    I want to make it clear that my restoration system and normally have restore points chose to EXCEPT those disappeared after creating a new restore point manually.   I spent a lot of time looking for answers without success - I've read a lot of problems have been System Restore does not work or restore points are deleted automatically, so that they do not apply to me.

    There is no option of backups in your screen printing

    You must make a backup of your files.

    Programs need to be reinstalled

    And we do not know what you have on E:, as the recovery partition is D: to reinstall Vista from.

    C: is the system, programs and data by car.

    You will often have an extra partition to save the data for, in this case, it seems to be E:

    If you created this partition or HP, I don't know

    If E: 10GBs of data, you will need to save it too much

    If you want to create a backup of files, buy an external hard drive.

  • Complete PC Vista restore error 0 x 80042407

    Okay, I need to move my installation out of a set of raid 5 unstable material which consists of three discs of 500 GB of the same type, model and size.  This raid set is equivalent to a 1 terabyte of 931 GB disk after it is formatted.

    I did a full backup pc of this volume on an external USB drive of 500 GB of a model and a different type.

    I have a whole new, drive 1 terabyte of different model who I am trying to restore to.  After many failed attempts, I decided to start diskpart and create a partition, mark it active, quick format in ntfs and label it 'system driv' but still no love.  No matter what I do, I keep getting the following error:

    "The complete PC Windows restore operation failed.
    "Details of the error: disk is defined as active in the bios is too small to recover the original system drive."  Replace the by a larger drive and retry the restore operation.  (0 x 80042407) "there are now only three disks in this system - backup USB drive C drive, where I am trying to restore to and the D drive DVD."

    The raid set and the new disk are formatted the same size - 931GB.  The size of the backup data is appx 400 GB 500 GB USB disk.  Why this will restore?  Simple is possible to have the restore disk is smaller than the backup disc of 3 k?  If this is the case, what happens if I have a server with a raid set and do disaster recovery from a single hard drive of the same size and it don't work.  Which makes it fundamentally new solution of Microsoft backup without value.  Should I now go out and buy a 1.5 terabyte drive crap just to make it work?  Sheeeeesh.  Each software backup image in the world has been able to return to a smaller drive for more than a decade.  What is the problem with the new backup?

    Hello

    You may have a hardware problem which is the cause.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  • Where the Vista restore points. They seem to not be in my System Volume information folder.

    I would like to manually restore five registry hives as I used to be able to do under XP. Any help is very appreciated.

    Since Vista, Windows uses the Volume Shadow Copy Service to create restore Points instead of copying files, so I doubt that the procedure you describe will still work.

    In my view, it is possible to access the shadow copies of Volume using the following procedure:

    The list of all the shadow copies on the system vssadmin list shadows command

    Use command mklink to create a symbolic link to the cliché. The command will look something like this

    MKLINK /j c:\old \\?\GLOBALROOT\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy2\

    Optionally, assign a drive letter to the directory with the subst command, for example:

    subst g: c\old

    You can access the old content using the c:\old path or the path g:\

    If you can easily access the registry hives like this is something that I cannot comment.

    You can also check if the content of C:\Windows\System32\config\RegBack is any use to you.
