When I upgraded my computer I saved all my bookmarks in a file named "Bookmark". This file contains subfiles like "Argentina" and "genealogy" which then contain the links. When I go to import Firefox does not recognize the folders, and want me to import links individually. I have thousands, so this is almost impossible. Any fix for this? Way I can cut and paste the things? Don't mind recreating the folder system if I have to. Help and thanks!

Hi,

Please try this: Copy the "Bookmark" folder into the Favorites folder inside your username. In Firefox, open Bookmarks (Alt + B) > Show All Bookmarks, click Import and Backup (on the top) > Import Data from Another Browser, Microsoft Internet Explorer.
