Use Windows Explorer to copy files to your Flash drive.

If you want to save a backup of all of your bookmarks, export them either in JSON or HTML format. When doing so, you're prompted where to save the file; choose your Flash drive as the location.

If you want to save a single bookmark,

  1. Visit the site.
  2. Resize the Firefox window so that it's not maximized.
  3. Click and drag the icon on the left side of the address bar (usually a globe, sometimes a padlock) and drop it on the desktop. This will create a shortcut file that you can copy to your Flash drive.
