Firefox wanted to create new profile

Firefox wanted, tak ty jsi taky wanted?
Takže na Ploše máš složku s původním profilem Firefoxu.

Do NOVÉHO profilu si zo STARÉHO prifilu (je na ploche) preneste tieto súbory:

C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxx.default - platí pre Windows 10

1. hesla, ktoré zostali v STAROM profile:

- logins.json a key4.db

2. prihlasovacie údaje, ktoré zostali v STAROM profile:

- cookies.sqlite

3. Záložky, ktoré zostali v STAROM profile:

- bookmarks-2020-07-15_xxxxxxxxx.jsonlz4 (číselný údaj 2020-07-15 = dátum, ktorý sa denne mení). Toto je záloha z 15.07.2020

- stará história a aj záložky sú v súbore places.sqlite a formhistory.sqlite

Všetky tieto kopírovania do nového profilu sa musia vykonávať pri ukončenom Firefoxe. https://support.mozilla.org/cs/kb/jak-prenest-dulezita-data-ze-stareho-profilu-do-no#w_hesla
