I formatted my hard drive and have tons of bookmarks I saved, but I can't figure out how to get them from my old folder into my new folder for my bookmarks.

I formatted my hard drive and backed up all my bookmarks to an external hard drive. I now want to take my bookmarks from my external hard drive and put them into my freshly formatted computer but I can't seem to find the place on my hard drive to save my bookmarks to. I searched everywhere online and it keeps telling me to import an html, but that doesn't help when I have about 20 bookmark folders and about 100 bookmarks altogether. Please help. Thank you.

"... I have about 20 bookmark folders and about 100 bookmarks altogether. "

Firefox doesn't store bookmarks like that, sound like a Windows / IE favorites scheme used for url files and folders which isn't directly compatible with the way Firefox does things. Firefox uses a json file for bookmark backups, a bookmarks.html for import and export is bookmarks, and stores the users bookmarks in the places.sqlite file, along with browsing history.

Put those folders and bookmarks in the \user\Favorites\ folder so they are in IE and export your IE Favorites in HTML format, so you can import them into Firefox.

In IE: File > Import/Export - Export to HTML file

then in Firefox:
Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks -> Import & Backup - Import HTML... = From HTML file
