Easy to do but you lose all the information it was protecting so, if the information is important first of all have a very good try at all possible passwords and combinations with plausible typos. Of course you should have a strong password and so that's probably futile.

You could consider setting up and using a new Firefox if you wish to continue using Firefox and saving password protected information, with the option of trying to remember the pass word data at a future date. But then you need to manually, or with sync update the new profile. Again probably not worth the effort.
