Is there a solution to preinstall user specific bookmarks? After new installation of Firefox, the profile folder does not exist and i can not copy places.sqlite into it. If i use policies.json there are only systemwide bookmarks possible. But i am looking for user specific bookmarks to deploy after a new installation.

I think you can put a bookmarks.html in the profile and set the preference

browser.bookmarks.restore_default_bookmarks

The format looks something like this

In which profile? After a complete reinstallation, there are no user profile folders yet.

You could set browser.bookmarks.restore_default_bookmarks and point to a bookmarks file in the user directory using the browser.bookmarks.file preference.

For this use case, most people use GPO which allows user specific options.
