i have lost my bookmarks while changing DC-server. What can be done to retrieve?
I have 2 issues.
- 1 I have a small home network with a domain controller which crashed. Now when launching FF, my bookmarks have disappeared.
- 2 I copied over the profiles folder and FF locked up. "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system." I've rebooted, changed properties to not be read-only, un-installed/re-installed all to no avail.
Is there any hope of recovering my bookmarks and getting FF back up and running?
Thanks in advance ! Ken

Make sure that Firefox isn't hung in Processes. Then inspect that Profile for a parent.lock file. If you find that file, delete it
You can restore the bookmarks from a JSON backup in the bookmarkbackups folder.
- bookmarks-####-##-##_xxxx_$$$$.json

Best is to only copy the files (personal data) that you need. That could include all SQLite files and key3.db and logins.json for passwords and cert8.db (intermediate certificates) and other .json files and .js files like sessionstore.js for the tabs and windows.
