When I started up my browser today all of my bookmarks were gone. This only happened on Firefox and not my other browsers. Can they be restored?
I have no idea what has happened to my bookmarks. The computer was turned On so that I could have it run its normal virus scan which was clean. The unit was powered off for several hours and after I start up the computer to do some work I tried to look up a reference in my bookmarks and they were all gone. Can they be restored?

Hello,
Firefox automatically creates backups of your bookmarks, which can be helpful if your bookmarks are lost or missing. To recover them, follow the instructions below.
- Use one of these methods to open the Bookmarks Library window:
- Click the Firefox button to open the menu and click on Bookmarks.
- Click the Bookmarks menu and click on Show All Bookmarks.
- At the top of the Library window, click the "Import and Backup" menu and select Restore.
- Click the date of the bookmark backup you want to recover.
- In the new window that appears, click OK.
- Your bookmarks from the selected date should now be restored.
For more information, see the Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer article. For other solutions, see the Recover lost or missing Bookmarks article.
