I got some random selection of Bookmarks suddenly lost from Firefox Bookmark Folders, some Folders entirely cleared… I’m I the only one?!

    I got something similar after a Firefox update. You can get them back by re-selecting the correct profile. I don’t remember exactly how but Internet should be able to help you there

      Luckily for me, I enabled offline Backups, and exported a copy ( HTML copy ), unfortunately FF doesn’t append nonexistence Bookmarks to existing ones, it’s just imports on top of everything…

      Still, randomly losing Bookmarks is very problematic, if it were 50 entries, fine no big deal, but you can’t keep track of say 10k entries, when they’re quietly stolen from you

      Tap for spoiler

      Note : ( It’s hard for me to even say randomly, most Bookmarks were deleted from sensitive topics such as Politics and religion…but I’m not accusing Mozilla… It’s just worth noting )
