[Question] Restoring all foxyproxy settings after reinstall - Firefox #128

Closed Crrispy closed 3 months ago

Crrispy commented 3 months ago

Hello,

I just did a full reinstall of my PC, starting from Windows. I always backup the Firefox profile folder before doing this, and restore it after reinstallation, so I find everything back in Firefox exactly where i left. But foxyproxy settings seem to be stored elsewhere since it is now empty :-(

How can I reimport all settings (socks, patterns, etc..)? I have a full backup of the C disk before reinstall.

Thanks.

Extension storage is handled by Firefox. It is in a IDB in the following folder under moz-extension+++[UUID]

C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\[profile]\storage\default

You can get the folder by going to about:profiles
