Hi,
Default Smart Bookmarks Folders:
- Most visited
- Recently Bookmarked
- Recent tags
If you deleted any of the default Smart Bookmark folders, please follow these steps:
1. In the Location Bar, where you type in the addresses of sites, enter about:config
A warning may appear. Click I'll be careful, I promise!
2. Filter browser.places.smartBookmarksVersion .
3. Double-click browser.places.smartBookmarksVersion
4. An integers value pop-up will appear. Set it to zero
5. Click OK. The next time you close Firefox, it will reset
I followed some ill advice when trying to C L E A R the Most Visited and ended up deleting the Most Visited "Smart Folder". Since I had not created any new bookmarks for that day I went to the Bookmarks pull down menu > Show All Bookmarks > clicked on the star looking thing entitled "Import and Backup your bookmarks" > Restore > selected yesterday's bookmarks. It will give you a warning that all your current bookmarks will be destroyed. So what, I'm restoring last night's bookmarks anyway. Most Visited came back, all is well. This is what worked for me.
