Loosing all bookmarks must be a real nightmare. Hope that will never happen to me.

I thought Spark might perhaps have something to do with it, it was not always 100% reliable in the past. It’s actually a very interesting program, it runs in the background all the time and waits patently until you press a predefined hotkey, then it opens a file, a folder or executes some other command. Now I have disabled it, don’t need it anymore because MaxMenus can do this too.
