I see i can just group my bookmarks into one folder, but that also make them possible to be deleted all at once just by accidentaly deleting the folder. Is there any way i could prevent bookmark's folder from deleting without saving bookmarks to my PC?

If you haven't closed Firefox yet then see if you can use "Organize > Undo" in the bookmarks manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) to undo this action and restore the bookmark(s). The Organize button is the first of the three buttons next to the Back and Forward buttons on the toolbar in the Library (Bookmarks Manager). If it didn't work then you can restore the bookmarks from a JSON backup in the bookmarkbackups folder.

  • Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Restore

This will replace all current bookmarks and you lose bookmarks that were added since that backup was created. See:

Hi   !
Maybe you'd like to try this add-on :

That'll give you a backup,   just in case   .....

Yeah, but that just saving it on PC though.


Also not sure if this add-on works on latest update.

I didn't know about the undo thing somehow. I think that should be enough, thanks for help.
