I tried to update Real Player. It worked but it put Google chrome as my search instead of Mozilla and the current Mozilla went into safe mode. I restored my computer it took out Google chrome and replaced Mozilla but there is still a tab in my start up that has Mozilla in safe mode. I clicked it the screen came up. I checked all the buttons but it won't come out of safe mode. I can still use Mozilla but all my bookmarks from months of research are gone. Is there anyway to get them back. I don't have them all writtten down and some took me to specific places. Please help!!!!!!!!

You may need to act quickly to rescue your bookmarks, but do not act in haste, remember you must make manual backups as you work, otherwise you are in danger of inadvertently overwriting useful sets of bookmarks.

Look at thread Where is the folder containing all my bookmarks?

  1. Look for the existing .JSON files and make copies of them.
  2. Ensure you make manual backups, of bookmarks as you work within firefox, on the task of restoring bookmarks.
  3. in future it may help if you continue to occasionally make manual backups, especially prior to upgrading or modify firefox .

Find and backup your bookmarks, getting firefox out of safemode will be a minor problem, whereas reading up about the bookmarks system and how it works will take you a while.
