I can select All Opened Tabs (as from the given link) and get 1,000+ Opened Tabs ( I am afraid, this is s number of all saved bookmarks in the past) I go to menu, Bookmarks, Manage Boomarks and copy Tabs and https://www.textfixer.com/html/convert-url-to-html-link.php does the job, converting text urls into clickable web links I copy the result and past into Notepad++ to save file as html and what I get is web page of clickable Opened Tabs since icon and page name are lost I would prefer another solution already ofered by Firex to generate web page of recently visited web pages, unfortunately coming with limits on the number of visited web pages, so I contacted Firefox, Notepad++ for help -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
