User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2 Build Identifier: Windows NT 5.0; Firefox/1.0.2 As part of a planned clean install of my OS, I backed up all files including my Firefox Bookmarks. After the install was completed, I began re-installing applications, including Firefox. When I tried to import the Bookmarks from a file, they ended up about 6 clicks deep in 3 redundantly named folders and in a randomly sorted order. Copying the Bookmarks file to the correct folder in Program files and replacing the new one didn't help. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. See above Expected Results: It should have added the bookmarks to Firefox in the usual Bookmarks location, just as if I had imported the bookmarks from another browser. I find it easier to put the Bookmarks folder on my Desktop, open and minimize it, and access the URL's from there rather than having to click, click, click just to get to an address that I want to go to, then doing that repeatedly if I am going to more than one location.

"Can't import Bookmarks except from another browser." That is wrong. Open Bookmarks/Bookmark Manager/File/import/File -> wfm
