Hi Firefox.

It is possible to synchronise an Firefox shortcuts for visiting pages, to another synchronised computer? (attachment)

Thanks

Machines are Win10 and Win 11. Current FF = 107.0.2 I have several PC's, previously NOT synced. All have overlapping bookmarks - some unique, others the same. My question has to do ONLY with bookmarks. My main concern is how to do this across multiple different machines - not all online at the same time - and NOT LOSE DATA!

1. When I sync machine A with machine B, I assume entries that are different are copied to the server AND then duplicated to the machine that did not have it.  Q:  Is the item that determines the uniqueness the NAME or the URL?

2. For entries common to both machines: copied to server, left alone on both machine. Q: To be considered the same - do they need to have both same NAME and Url? 3a. Same name but different url? What happens? 3b Same url but different name? What happens?

............................ Now assume we have 2 synced machines with identical bookmarks. What are the rules / priority sequence concerning the data interactions (specifically deletion ) when one machine is offline and the other adds / deletes a bookmark, and the offline machine has made some additions and deletions before it comes back online (eg. signed in)

TIA. Clifton

how to restore bookmark,password,extensions,etc ?

the last time i already registered account, and with imported data from another browser : i can use bookmark menu, etc THEN i reinstall my windows, i login account in firefox, and : DANG! , no saved bookmark, no saved password, my old extension + preference

dont tell me firefox still use : "firefox.exe" -profile "%profilepath%" like old method (v.52.3.0ESR) for saving bookmark,password,extensions,etc ?

did i made mistakes, or firefox account cant save bookmark,password,extensions,etc ?

I have changed my default search engine, but the setting is not applied on my other devices. I have had to manually change it for each device. I have checked my Sync settings and everything is checked.
