I recently updated my main w7 computer to Firefox 57. Apparently,
xmarks had some problems where all the folders of folders are now
empty. So, I checked on the xmarks website in my account and sure
enough, they were now all empty. I have another computer, w7 laptop,
where the folders are all still in tact. I'm afraid to tell xmarks to
sync now because I fear that it will pump up the laptop with the empty
folders and I will loose those bookmarks. I don't know how to proceed.
Is there a way to make xmarks not update that computer? Any help would
be appreciated. I did google it but got lost in all the gobbldeGoogle.

What is xmarks?

(And before all those people tell me to Google it: if Art, who _does_
know what it is, gets lost in the gobbledeGoogle, then what chance would
I have.)

I and others who might like to try to help might get further if we knew
what it was. Of course, the best responses will come from other users,
but if they aren't forthcoming ...
