Guest Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Well Firefox uses a random name for the profile folder. You can change that of course via %appdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\profiles.ini. This is what I use for mine...[General]StartWithLastProfile=1[Profile0]Name=XIsRelative=0Path=D:\Programs\Firefox\ProfileIf you do something like that, you will have both folder locations. You can then have your Favorites and bookmarks.html copied over during guirunonce.If you need me to explain this in detail, let me know.You may also want to consider what I do. I move Firefox and my Favorites folder to a non-OS drive. Anytime I reinstall, I don't need to worry about redoing my Firefox or my IE Favorites.

Guest Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 You can use Tweak UI to modify it's location( it's under My Computer > Special Folders) then export these 2 keys.[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders]"Favorites"=[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders]"Favorites"= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
