I have done a fresh install of my XP operating system and completed the updates. Now I am trying to get Firefox set up. I had saved my profile folder contents and was able to copy that into a test profile and it displays the way I remember.

But I am trying to create a fresh profile using ONLY my saved bookmarks and passwords. When I copy over these files [places.sqlite, key3.db, signons3.txt, permissions.sqlite] to the new profile as per the article about recovering important data from an old profile the bookmark toolbar is a separate line rather than combined on the menu bar.

You need key3.db and signons.sqlite for the passwords from Firefox 3.5 or later. The file signons3.txt is from an older Firefox 3 version.

You can move the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" items onto another toolbar (Menu Bar or Navigation Toolbar) via View > Toolbars > Customize
