how do I restore bookmarks from a favorites folder?
My hard drive crashed and when replaced it I moved from Windows XP to Windows 7. I did not backup my Bookmarks with Firefox, but I do have a backup file listed under Favorites on an external drive. Most of my Bookmarks are in folder format. Is there any way to import or add the Favorites folder to Firefox without having to individually add each bookmark file?

Export your favorites from IE in HTML format, and import that file into Firefox.
In IE:
File > Import/Export - Export to HTML file
then in Firefox:
Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks -> Import & Backup - Import HTML... = From HTML file
My hard drive crashed...there are no favorites in IE or Firefox on the new drives. All I have is a backup folder called Favorites on an external drive.
Can you import your backup folder (Favorites) into IE, then follow the-edmeister's instructions?
As far as I can tell the situation is the same in IE...only allows files to be brought in, not folders. Please let me know if I am mistaken.
