Although I even cleaned Mozilla from the Registry (maybe I caught not everything), after the reinstall all my bookmarks were there, and it still cannot save bookmarks in the personal toolbar.
I did not think that Mozilla would nest so deep into the registry - or where have these informations that I thought I did delete completely from the system been stored?
Is there a way to bring back full functionality to the personal toolbar or how do I delete Mozilla 100% from the system to reinstall from scratch?
Thanx for any help in advance.
C:\Documents and Settings\[your username]\Application Data\Mozilla\
Not sure where they are in Win 9x/Me, although I suspect it would be in the same folder as the application (ie, C:\Program Files\Mozilla\).
BTW, this is a known bug in Mozilla, so deleting your prefs will not fix it. See:
[bugzilla.mozilla.org...]
You led me to the solution. For those who wish to know:
I had no personal toolbar anymore - somehow, I have no idea how Mozilla lost that one. But clicking my way through c:/documents and settings... (see moonbiters post above) I found the bookmarks.html file Mozilla is using. And in this file, there was something missing (I checked that with my file from my home copy of Mozilla). So if ever your copy of Mozilla loses the Personal Toolbar, make sure something like this is in the bookmarks.html file:
<H1>Bookmarks</H1>

What was missing was the bold part. Do not edit anything else in this file unless you know exactly what you're doing.
Thanx again, moonbiter! :)
