Where are the bookmarks stored that I have added to my browser.?

Question

The Bookmark.html file only has the default original bookmarks, and none of "My" bookmarks. Does anyone know where to find the user defined bookmarks? I am referring to IE, Firefox, and Netscape.

Answer 1

First, set Windows to display hidden folders and files open any Explorer window > File Options > View > scroll down to "Show hidden files and folders" and make sure it is selected.

For Internet Explorer go to Local Drive C: > Documents and Settings > (your account name) > Favorites.

For Firefox go to Local Drive C: > Documents and Settings > (your account name > Application Data > Mozilla > Firefox > Profiles > (profile name) > bookmarks.html

For Netscape same as Firefox but Application Data is Netscape
