I also set browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML to true. At the end of a session a new bookmarks.html will be generated. I grouped the item in it with 'Manage Bookmarks' and moved my must used one up. I use the generated bookmarks.html as the homepage and periodically copy it to a safe place. No need to keep a 100 tabs always open this way. This could be imported quite easily also if something gets lost.

Happy new year

If you have a places.sqlite.corrupt file in you profile they might also be there.

Some deprecated js features were removed between 2.40 and 2.46. Unfortunately
there is more to come till 2.49. All add-ons normally shipped with SeaMonkey
broke and had to be fixed. Then again for 2.50. Might mean the death of a lot
of older add-ons. I would check them out one by one in a clean profile. Some
might just need some js compatibility patches. Usually I just look in the
error console and check if I see any errors there.

Thanks! There were 10 backups of the bookmarks going back to June 2016. I imported the most recent one. I saw them appear instantly but then got a puzzling, small popup saying they couldn't be imported. But they were successfully imported! I'm glad as they go all the way back to the beginning of Sea Monkey with some really old bookmarks with tips for Windows 98SE and XP Pro which might come from the last version of Mozilla Suite (can't recall if I was able to import bookmarks from there into SeaMonkey). I suppose I should find time to prune the bookmarks!

I'm going to see if the Stylish code I have for Fx 45.6 ESR to make multicolumn bookmarks also works in this version of SeaMonkey. I also found the old Multicolumn Bookmarks code at github and will try it in Stylish if the Stylish code I use on Fx won't work in SeaMonkey. I've never understood why Mozilla did not incorporate multi columns for bookmarks long ago in Fx as who wants to have scroll down an extremely long and unwieldy column every time they want a bookmark?
