import bookmark from other user account
Previously I'm using company laptop with my user account A. I'm using firefox with bookmark. But due to some technical problem, my company laptop not able to login as the user account A. And now I only can login as administrator account.
And this happened so suddenly and I'm not able to export my bookmark from my previous account A.
When i opened firefox, all bookmark is blank. May I know how can I restore back my bookmark from previous account A? I found that my documents in account A all still able to be open. But I can't find where the firefox bookmark was saved.
can anyone help me? thank you very much!

finally I found another method.
I accidentally found the bookmark backup in the previous profile.
The address is as below: C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\fv1a331t.default\bookmarkbackups
so i just import the file and all my problem solved!!
Hope it helps other user which has same problem as me.
thank you.

add in info... I'm using Windows 7
See:

It would be best to create a new user account instead of running Windows as Administrator as that will make you extra vulnerable.
thanks for the reply. i will try it up and inform later. It's company IT decision. i can't do anything with it.
