Hello

Suddenly, all the favicons for my bookmarks are lost. Maybe it's because of a HP Cleaning tool.

However: Why doesn't Firefox "reload" the favicons when I open the bookmarks? Can I force the favicons to be re-loaded?

I am thankful for any help. Thanks already in advance for all the very nice supporters here!

Note that you need to visit a bookmarked link to make Firefox retrieve the favicon.

I am sorry, Strafy, but I actually don't understand what I should do when I read the answers in the linked thread. I don't find the buttons. Should I delete files?
