I have lots of bookmarks and yesterday I deleted a major directory by
mistake and was not able recover it within SeaMonkey. I looked in Help but
did not learn what to do.
The "bookmarkbackups" subdirectory implies that there is a SeaMonkey way to
restore bookmarks. But how?
Open the Bookmarks Manager (Ctrl+B) and open the Restore menu below the
Tools menu.
The entries listed there equal the JSON files located in the
bookmarkbackups directory inside the SM profile directory.
Boy, just what I wanted - yesterday! But thanks, I now know how for the
next time.
Ditto. I didn't know that existed. I assume this is bookmarks only and
not histories and other data. I usually manually backup my 20 MB
places.sqlite files often/frequently since they are portable. They even
work in Firefoxes on other OSes so they are cross platform and browser
compatible! :O
