Running current version of FF (10.0.2), Win7, FF on c: drive

Really want to MOVE my bookmarks to my d: drive so that when I restore/nuke my c: system drive, I do not lose my bookmarks.

Thanks for your help in telling me how to do this.

I don't want to back it up or restore it, I want to move it to a different drive on my PC.
