Oh yes, punch cards. They made the best and worst confetti (they are really hard to vacuum up again....)
|

I worked as a computer operator while attending college and we had a woman COBOL programmer bring in a box of cards to be run and one of the other operators dropped the box. We apologized profusely and gave them back to her to reorganize, she was upset but understanding.
When she gave them back I dropped them and then she was pissed. I offered to help but she refused. I felt like crap!

I deleted my Microsoft Edge profile and since I do not do any online sync etc, I do not know where to recover by favourites from. Does anyone know where on disk Edge stores it? I would expect it to be somewhere here and looking into it. But in case someone knows I can do this faster: C:\Users\MyWindowsUser\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data
Update
I gave up and enabled sync to a google account.

Should be in
...\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default
the "Bookmarks" file.
|
|
|
|
|
There is no Default folder there. And the only bookmarks file (not a folder) I see in user data is empty.

I don't think folks at my office would like to do this for a bookmark file.

I think it is kind of a weird path:
C:\Users\<user-name>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Snapshots\101.0.1210.39\Default
// I guess that 101.0.1210.39 is the version number so check yours
there is a Bookmarks file in there...
snapshot of the folder --
https://i.stack.imgur.com/2G0Wl.png[^]
I'm fairly sure that will be a Sqlite file. I'm checking on it now to see (will let you know).
UPDATE
Looks like the Bookmarks file is basically JSON -- snippet...
{
"date_added": "13252084155113895",
"guid": "3eb09616-b2d8-4da8-98f1-5f1dbad21bad",
"id": "30",
"name": "Information About the IIS File Transmission Protocol (FTP) Service",
"show_icon": false,
"source": "import_fre",
"type": "url",
"url": "http://support.microsoft.com/kb/283679"
}, {
Update 2
Oh, also saw it up date Bookmarks file in:
C:\Users\<user-name>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default
I see there are Bookmarks.bak in there too.
I added google.com & saw it update the Bookmarks file:
"children": [ {
"date_added": "13299089499366901",
"guid": "15938707-b5f5-4bf2-b48e-0f0a2e149394",

Looks so promising but I see nothing. I think I know what might have happened. I created a new profile to see where goes what for a profile and it create the profile with same name as the one I deleted. Thus, everything is gone. I did manage to redo all the work. I had like 10 bookmarks and I lost my Quantum computing book link. Other than that I think I have it all.

In my opinion, your biggest blunder was using MS Edge at all. /s

Much chirping around nifty crain (10)

Anagrams are getting just too easy ... and I'm reasonably sure CRAIN isn't an actual word ...

I agree - I've been spending so much time following the TT I just threw one together - I will try harder post TT

TT's not the same on TV.
Mind you, it's been a very long time since I was last there ...

I follow the live commentary on manxradio.com - and the live timings on iomttraces.com, it's the closest you can get to being there - I used to go every year to either the Manx GP or the TT.

He's Ximenean, so he had to write crain instead of French fear.
