I have downloaded bookmarks from IE. Do I need to keep IE on my system in order to keep the bookmarks or are they now a permanent part of FF

Chosen solution

If the bookmarks are appearing in Firefox there is no need to keep the IE bookmarks files themselves. You may however wish to retain IE

  • there are some functions that are easier or only possible on IE, how do you update Windows & OS for instance.
  • IE may be useful as a backup browser, and maybe for troubleshooting
