Reconstructing your deleted bookmarks

Reconstructing your deleted bookmarks
Your favorite sites are quickly accessible through your "Most frequently visited" folder on the Bookmarks toolbar. However, you accidentally deleted or overwrote this while backing up your computer.
There is unfortunately no menu option to undelete the folder. This is because your bookmark
library is actually a small database and you have to define a database query for that. To solve the problem here is a simple sloution------------


  1. Right-click on the bookmark symbol bar and select 'New bookmark' in the context command.
  2. Enter 'Most frequently visited websites' as the “Name”. The query you have to enter in the “Address” field is important. There, type “place:queryType=0&sort 8&maxResults=20” for example. 
  3. Confirm the dialog by clicking “Add". 

The individual parameters work as follows: you state that the results must be pulled from the
browser history with “queryType=0”; sort them in decreasing order of visit frequency with “sort=8”;
and limit the number of displayed results with “maxResults=20”.
