how to recover bookmarks from Firefox on an external drive when the external drive can't open the app?
I have the hardrive from my old Windows 7 computer set up as an external drive. I'm running Windows 10 on the new computer. I would like to find all my old Firefox bookmarks. I found some suggestion from 2013, which said to search for this hidden file/folder:
E:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
But I don't find that. I find other "...\AppData\Roaming..." folders for other apps, but not Mozilla.
Any 2017 help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
