Windows 10: Do I have to Save 'My Settings' and Mozilla 'Bookmarks' To Flash Drive If Updating Win 10 BIOS?

I've already saved 'My Docs' to flash drive, but can't even find the Mozilla Firefox bookmarks that are supposed to be saved in a Mozilla profile somewhere in Windows. I also want to save My Settings.If I do need to save Bookmarks and My Settings before updating Win 10 BIOS, where do I find them?

access BIOS settings in Win 10

I have an 8-year old computer running Win 10. I need to access the BIOS settings. It used to be the holding down the F2 key during startup would bring up the BIOS screen in Windows computers. But this no longer works. A web article listed a complicated
series of steps leading to a reboot . . . but still no access to BIOS. Any suggestions?

 

BitLocker Save to USB Flash missing?


Hi,

I followed the step by step guide on what Brink wrote up below.
https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/3...-a.html?filter[1]=Security System Tools

However, when turning ON BitLocker to encrypt the OS drive only, and ask me to where to save the recovery key, I get only the Save to File and not the Save to USB Flash. Has MS taken out the Save to USB selection since WIn 10 version 1511?

I followed all the steps and left BitLocker to its default setting (except for encryption method).

I was able to save the recovery key to a file which was my USB flash drive.
