Hello,

my old computer died and got a new one. I signed in Firefox but I don't know how to transfer all of the bookmarks and saved toolbars from the old computer. Unfortunately, I'm not able to turn on the old computer anymore so I was wondering if there is a way to retrieve this info.

Thank you so much, I appreciate any help you can offer.

Unfortunately bookmarks are stored locally on your computer so if you hadn't enabled syncing or saved the folder beforehand then you will not be able to retrieve the bookmarks.

Does its hard drive still work if you mount it in an USB enclosure that allows it to connect to the new computer ?
