Upon typing URLs in the location bar a drop down item list will appear.

Is there somewhere in firefox where this list of items is stored? If so, is that in a format I can go through and see each item?

Thank you

That data is stored in the places.sqlite file in the Profile folder. An SQLIte manager add-on or program can be used to query and view that data.

It worked. Thank you very much the-edmeister.


Some details:

- Add-on installed: SQLite Manager 0.7.7

- From SQLite Manager you need to open the places.sqlite and it is stored under [DRIVE]:\[users]\[pc user]\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\[one of the profile]\ on Windows 7(64bit).

- On the left side of SQLite Manager program main window there is a tree structure of tables, Views, Indexes etc. You need to go to under Tables and click on moz_places. On the center of the SQLIte program main window now you should see the table with its columns. The URL column is the right one.
