I accidently deleted a bookmarked folder. How do I get the contents back?
I deleted an important bookmark folder. Is there a way I can recover all the bookmarks contained in that folder?

If you have not closed Firefox since this happened, you could try the Undo function in the Library dialog. To open the dialog:
- Ctrl+Shift+b
- "Show All Bookmarks"
On the Organize menu, Undo will be enabled if it is possible to undo a recent change. Depending on the number of changes you made, you may need to use Undo several times. I'm not sure how deep the buffer goes, but I do know that it will be cleared when you exit Firefox.

Restore a bookmarks backup from before you deleted that folder. Instructions are here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/restore-bookmarks-from-backup-or-move-them
hi johnlpowell, you can restore all your bookmarks to a prior date. press ctrl+shift+b in order to open the bookmarks library and then go to import & backup > restore... to select one of the automatic backups

Thank you so very much. Even though I had closed Firefox, I was still able to get the missing bookmarks back! I truly appreciate your help.
