How to restore Firefox bookmarks from system recovery backup files?
My Windows 7 HP PC crashed because I deleted Ubuntu partitions during dual boot. I used HP System Recovery to back up all my data which is ~26GB to a USB HDD. After a factory reset with default Windows 7 install, it was up running. I then restored the .wim backup files successfully without including Pictures though due to a size concern.
When I tried to restore and import the Firefox bookmarks, I only found a Firefox HTML document "bookmarks" in folder C:\System Recovery Files\2019-02-23 144237\D-OS\Users\uname\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\rjwqog1f.default. I tried to open it and it said "Unsupported file type", see attached. I also tried to use "Import Bookmarks from HTML" and only got one unrelated bookmark "Get Bookmark Add-ons". I searched around the folder "System Recovery Files" for keywords: Mozilla, Firefox and bookmark and there were no apparent hits. Can someone show me how to restore Firefox bookmarks from HP backup files?
