Bookmarks recovery from windows 7 Hard drive
Hi! My old laptop won't boot anymore. I got a Windows 10 laptop now. I can connect the windows 7 laptop hard drive to my new laptop, and it can read the hardware. How I can get my bookmarks back on the new laptop? Thanks!

To get bookmark you have to be able to access like it was working before to get the bookmarks and data to restore them to the new computer.

Only thing with hooking the drive is if you can run that Firefox and open it to backup the bookmark but if that can't be done then it's most likely your not going to be able to transfer the data correctly.

You can copy certain files with Firefox closed to the current profile folder to transfer or recover personal data. Note that best is to avoid copying a full profile folder.
You can use the button on the "Help -> More Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page (Root directory).
