I have a new computer. When I backed up my bookmarks previously, they went to my C Drive, now they are going to desktop. I want my saved backup of bookmarks to go directly to C Drive, instead of me having to manually change from Desktop to C Drive

How do you backup the bookmarks?

I would assume that this is a setting in the software you use the create the backup.

You can make Firefox create an automatic HTML backup (bookmarks.html) when Firefox is closed by setting browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML to true on the about:config page.

This HTML backup is created by default in the profile folder as bookmarks.html every time you close Firefox, but you can set the path and file name via the browser.bookmarks.file pref on the about:config page.

The browser.bookmarks.file pref doesn't exist by default and you need to create a new String pref with the name browser.bookmarks.file and set the value to the full path of the backup bookmarks.html file including the file name.
