Details

In the FireFox FAQ for "How To Manage Profiles" area, the "Backing up your
profile section of this page (located near the bottom of the page.) has a broken
link.  The link appears as "profile folder".  Below is a copy via clipboard of
the "Backing up your profile" section.  The broken link is located in step 3.



Backing up your profile

Backing up your profile folder in Firefox is easy. Just follow these steps
(which assumes you know how to manage files on your computer):

   1. Optional: Empty the browser cache, to reduce the amount of data to backup.
Go to Tools > Options... (Edit > Preferences... on Linux/Mac), select Privacy
and click the Clear button next to the Cache item in the list.
   2. Shut down Firefox completely (File > Exit).
   3. Make a copy of your profile folder to, for example, a CD-RW disc or a
separate hard disk for backup purposes.
