2 questions about mozilla bookmarks

Post by Hamel »

1) Where are they stored? I'm worried that I'll need to delete an old installation before I install a new one, and if so I want to back em up
2) If I install a new build over an old one, will it keep my bookmarks?

My worries over bookmarks are the only thing keeping me from downloading the newest release
"Right now we can tell you a report was filed by the family of a 12 year old boy yesterday afternoon alleging Mr. Michael Jackson of criminal activity. A search warrant has been filed and that search is currently taking place. Mr. Jackson has not been charged with any crime. We cannot specifically address the content of the police report as it is confidential information at the present time, however, we can confirm that Mr. Jackson forced the boy to listen to the Howard Stern show and watch the movie Private Parts over and over again."

\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Mozilla\Profiles\[profile name]\[random string.slt]\

You will need to unhide hidden and system files to see that directory.
2) If I install a new build over an old one, will it keep my bookmarks?
Yes. It is usually reccommended that you uninstall the old Mozilla (which should keep your old profile intact) and then install the new version of Mozilla.
