how to import bookmarks directly from 'Bookmarks' file that i have left from chrome?
not from installed browser but from the file on my hdd
Chosen solution
OK, that is a Bookmarks file from Google Chrome. You would have to place this file in the default location that GC uses for its personal data and let Firefox import the GC bookmarks.
Google Chrome stores the bookmarks in JSON format in the Bookmarks file in its profile folder. C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Bookmarks

Is that an HTML backup?
- Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import Bookmarks from HTML

thanks, are there simple windows-explorer-like actions in firefox bookmarks manager: like undelete last removed url/folder and cancel renaming?
If you can undo an action then Undo in the Organize menu in the Bookmarks Manager (Library) is enabled (not grayed).
