I had windows 7 on drive C, now I got new computer with a new windows 7 and I'm using the old drive (C) as an external hard drive, it still has all program files and windows files on it. How do I retrieve my old book marks that are on that hard drive, I did not back them up before.

You can find the Firefox Profile Folder in this location (replace the x with the proper drive letter):

  • x:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\

The "Application Data" folder in XP/Win2K and the "AppData" folder in Windows Vista and later Windows 7+ versions are hidden folders.

You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:

  • Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder
