Yes. I wrote down the procedure a few weeks ago which may come in handy for you as well: https://www.bahmanm.com/2023/07/firefox-profiles-quickly-replicate-your-settings.html
Thanks!
I think yes, but also, use sync.
Aren’t they synchronized with the Firefox account?
@gabriele97 @caboclo I have diferent profiles with diferent folders. I will be easier to bring them even with sync.
Not everything is synchronized, unfortunately. Especially if you have done some changes with
chrome/userChrome.css, but other things too.
Yes. Copy the [random gibberish] folder itself from
AppData%/firefoxinto the.Mozilla/firefoxfolder.Pretty sure only the filesystem will change - so if you are synchronised as a backup, just zip up that folder and pull out what you need for the new install. I had no issues re-installing with BTRFS from ext4 and restoring a backup file a few months back.
Also, I’d say definitely stop using these for passwords, if you use Bitwarden or something similar then you can have the same stuff for your phones/tablets/computers everywhere that don’t rely on local files.
If I start a session somewhere outside my home environment, I can pull up Bitwarden and log in with no issues - nothing saved to the browser and no conflicts between phone/desktop etc (e.g. icloud passwords clashing with ones I use on my desktop - I use Bitwarden on an iphone too).
