I didn't know performing a System Restore to a checkpoint from two days ago would erase all my Internet favorites, my Firefox settings, my Trillian nicknames, and who knows what else. Well...I had a lot of favorited sites that I didn't really go to anymore so it's always nice to clean up every once in a while...but dang, I lost a lot more stuff that I had intended. Ah well, at least Head-Fi is my first favorite of the night

Ouch, that sucks

Personally whenever i do any sort of restore i always make my own backup on a usb or even just write down my sites/friends names (from games or rl). You never know what kind of crap a computer is gona pull on you.

Does re-restoring back to your original state bring back anything?

That's why I never use SR.

It pays to keep a list of your favoured links on a .txt file.

I don't think it brings back anything, I used it to get rid of something.

Or better yet, just keep a folder full of all your favorites somewhere and then just copy-paste them all to your favorites folders in Firefox. But...ahh jeez I'm just soo lazy

Well, you have a backup right?

If not, then I guess you are screwed...
