    Upper righthand corner there is a house symbol, a star symbol and a cog symbol. Favorites is under the star symbol.
    Internet Explorer's "Favorites" (also "Internet Shortcuts") are stored as individual files named with the original link name, and the filename extension ".URL",[5] for example "Home Page.URL" collected in a directory named "Favorites" which may have subdirectories. Bookmark names must be unique within a folder. Each file contains the original URL and Microsoft-specific metadata. Browsers have varying abilities to import and export bookmarks to favorites, and vice versa.

    Search for a place you once had by name and see if an archived version is still on your system somewhere.
