If you want to bookmark pages from Firefox browsing history, here is what you have to do. You do not have to install a browser add-on or anything to get the job done. The best thing is that the Firefox browser can bookmark any page directly from the browsing history.
Let’s assume that your browser has some issues, and you have to clear the browsing history. You will lose the entire list of previously opened pages from the browsing history panel. If you have some important pages in your browsing history and you do not want to delete them, here is how to keep them.
Although they will be deleted from the browsing history, you can store them as a bookmark. Considering several things, it is better to copy-paste the links in a text editor or so.
