Where are Chrome's favicons after importing into Firefox 75?

Hello support, I have about 3,000 favicons in Chrome to appear when open the bookmark. When importing in Firefox 75 I noticed all the favicons are gone. The only why to get them back in to open the URL. There has to be a more efficient way. Do I need an Add-on or is there some other way? I've read many post, but none of those solutions worked.

Favicons aren't imported from Google Chrome because of a potential privacy issue with doing that and the fact that (just like Firefox) Google Chrome keeps the favicon information separate from the file that stores the actual bookmarks. Google Chrome has the same behaviour when importing bookmarks from Firefox.

You can use an extension like Checkmarks to reload all of the favicons.

Hope this helps.
