How to back up your Firefox

There are two ways provided here to back up your Firefox.

1. Firefox AddOn

FEBE is firefox AddOn used for the Firefox backup. There are two ways in which you can backup using this plugin, but first set the directory (Tools>FEBE>FEBE Options>Directory)

• Selective Method allows you to specify exactly what parts of Firefox to include. Extensions and themes are rebuilt as separate, installable files (.xpi or .jar). These files can be installed in any Firefox installation just as if they were pulled from the Firefox Add-ons page (AMO), Simply open them with File>Open File.

• Full profile backup includes everything contained in your Firefox profile. It is all or nothing and cannot be selectively restored (at least not easily). A restored profile will look exactly the same as when the backup was performed.
