Have a new laptop and need to move my bookmarks from the old laptop to the new laptop. Both run Windows XP. Where are my bookmarks filed on the old computer. As far as I know they haven't been backed-up.

The database file is places.sqlite and is in the Firefox profile.

For instructions see

It is a good idea to regularly backup the bookmarks, even if you consider using Firefox sync and Firefox's own daily backups.

P.S.

Using this method may back up more information, including your History and any Tags, and so may be considered more complete than backing up only using HTML files.
