Importing Favorites from FireFox

[solar-man]

Installed firefox about 6 months ago, and it imported all my favorites from

IE, but apparently erased them. I wish to restore the favorites to IE and go

back to it as my sole browser. Any ideas as to how i can restore the

favorites?

Never known THAT before - are you SURE?

Have you checked in Windows Explorer that your Favorites folder is indeed

empty?

In FF do Bookmarks-Manage Bookmarks-Export as HTML.

in IE Import the resultant HTML file...

Windows version? IE version? Are you sure your IE bookmarks (Favorites)

have been "erased"?

Shouldn't you be asking this in a Firefox forum?

E.g. does Firefox have an export to IE facility?

If so, that's what I would use.

No it doesn't. It has Export to html which IE can then import...
