In this blog post, we’ll show you how to restore your old Firefox data in a few simple steps.
Firstly, you need to backup your Firefox data by opening the Run command (Windows + R) and going to the App Data folder. From there, you’ll need to navigate to the Firefox folder, then to Profiles, and back up the file. Once you’ve done this, you’re ready to restore your old Firefox data.

Then, copy your backup folder into the current profile folder and rename it to the previous one. Finally, open Firefox and wait for it to sync your data – it should only take a few moments.
Once you’re done, you’ll see that all your old Firefox data has been restored, including your favorite apps and extensions. This way, you can backup and restore your Firefox data easily whenever you need to.
