Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 249150

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Daisy]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2 StumbleUpon/1.999

I had the bookmarks toolbar minimized, and when I told the PC to open it, it was
empty.  They had flashed up as though they were there, but after a split second
everything was lost.

I was opening www.totalfark.com, but I don't think that is the problem.  

There is no bookmarks folder in the program anymore, and I have not created a
new file or opened firefox on a new profile.

I have rebooted, forcibly shut down the program by the task manager, and tried
to reload the book marks through the bookmarks manager.  

Everytime I open the program now, the bookmarks bar is blank.

Reproducible: Didn't try

You probably need to check the FAQ sheet and other troubleshooting resources
for Firefox.
