I have recently reinstalled my OS on a new drive and have just successfully restored my old bookmarks and imported any new bookmarks I had saved since the OS install. I just want to know know if it is safe to delete the json file i restored from since this was on the old drive I want to format and can I also delete the html file i created by exporting my new bookmarks before i started this process?

You can keep a backup copy of that old file or make backups of the JSON backups on the new computer.
You can decide for yourself if you would have a usage for that file.
If all bookmarks have been restored successfully then you won't need this backup and you can create a new backup regularly if you have modified or added bookmarks.

Thanks Cor-el, and firefox will automatically do json backups now is my understanding, so I can format my old drive.
