I would export to an html file, then edit with notepad, then import to another browser.

Export Firefox bookmarks

I don't think copy and paste works with different profiles.

Is Comodo based on Chrome? I don't use Comodo.

Move bookmarks to another browser (see last section)

You might consider Kompozer from SourceForge.

It is a visual editor

KompoZer 7.10 Download
https://kompozer.net/download/

Install the program
Drag/Drop an HTML bookmark file onto the icon

When it loads it will look like the directory tree of Firefox

Position the cursor where you want to insert bookmarks -- Open some space using <enter> to drag/drop other bookmarks

You may be able to open two sessions simultaneously -- one with the old and one with the new

Be sure and backup/save the original just in case.
I often take a long windy road to my destination. Upon arrival, I wonder how I missed the shortcut.
