My old PC running Windows XP broke and was not repairable but we managed to salvage the drives. I have a new PC running Wondows 8.1 and have installed Firefox. Can you please tell me how I can get all my bookmarks, passwords etc. from the old disc onto the new Firefox. I have the old disc configured as an external hard drive so it can be read easily.
