Component: Untriaged → Bookmarks & History

I didn't manage to reproduce this issue when upgrading to Firefox 99.0.1 from Firefox 99.0.
Could you please share more detailed steps on how to reproduce this issue, like was it a new install or just a Firefox update? Also, did you import any bookmarks or did you sync your data and preferences?

Flags: needinfo?(catwirk)

I've done multiple installs, both new and updates. Some bookmarks were synced, others were not and I imported those. I installed a favicon grabber app to refresh them all before the last update. Now some of them are gone again. I was going to post a screenshot but I do not see an option for that here.

Thank you for the details provided.
It looks to me that this is a dupe of bug 428378.
Also please note that for the time being the favicons are not imported from any browser(Google Chrome, Safari, Microsoft Edge). Please see bug 1213284.
