Hi guys, I have a problem. I opened multiple tabs in my portable Firefox Aurora on my external USB stick (Firefox is set to open them the next time it loads automatically).

The USB has crashed and some files were damaged, so I tried to correct the problems on it using the Windows fixing tool. However it said, that it was not able to fix all of the errors on the USB.

The problem is that the Firefox.exe file is broken, so it won't start anymore - it says it "could't load XPCOM".

I need to find the exact addresses of the websites, that I visited before, so I thought that accessing the history might be the easiest solution.

Would you guys have any ideas, how to either make this this installation of FIrefox work, or how to recover the history from it's files on the USB ?

Nemusíš to otevírat/spouštět. Stačí to při zavřeném Firefoxu překopírovat do nového umístění profilu. Záložky a historie se ti po novém spuštění prohlížeče objeví v menu aplikace.

Stará história a aj záložky sú v súbore places.sqlite
