    Where does firefox store my Profile?!


    i tried this from Mozilla support:-
    1. Click the Windows Start button and type %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\
    in the Search box at the bottom of the Start menu, without pressing Enter.
    2. A list of profiles will appear at the top of the Start menu.
    Click on the profile with “default” in the name to open it in a window.

    but it didn't work, when i copied this file to another laptop (W.XP) it didn't work,
    PLEASE HELP! i can't start my W.7 & i'am trying to copy all of my data to this laptop
    (W.XP) but the only thing that didn't work is this program.

    In W7 Firefox stores it profile in

    C:\Users\[User name]\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles

    In XP copy the default profile to:

    C:\Documents and Settings\[User name]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles

    You should delete the old profile and replace it with the newer one
    Reinstalling Firefox should fix the problem
