Setting up Launchy to access your Firefox favorites

Store the exported favorites html file in here:

Currently Launchy 2.0 will only search %APPDATA%/Mozilla/Firefox/... for bookmarks.html, so a workaround would be to make a link or copy your FF bookmarks.html there.

Note: Do you work with different Firefox profiles? Please check C:\Documents and Settings\[User name]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\profiles.ini. I think that Weby takes the first line containing "Path=" and extracts the path where to look for the bookmarks.html file. Verify that this first entry points to the Firefox profile you use and, as advised by begesf, if it contains the bookmarks.html with the links you expect. Also note that, at least under WinXP, Firefox may only (re-)export the bookmarks.html file when closing the application.
