Linux, openSuse 13.1. After setting up 9 profiles that I need to do my work, an upgrade wiped each custom profile and filled it with the firefox default, how do I stop this behavior.

How did you set up those profiles?

These add-ons can be a great help by backing up and restoring Firefox

FEBE (Firefox Environment Backup Extension) {web link} FEBE allows you to quickly and easily backup your Firefox extensions, history, passwords, and more. In fact, it goes beyond just backing up -- It will actually rebuild your saved files individually into installable .xpi files. It will also make backup of files that you choose.

firefox -p, accepted default directories.

Does the profiles.ini file still list all the profiles and are they still in the home directory (~/.mozilla/)?

yes, still in default directory. Also firefox sync overwrites all profiles. Am not having problems with chrome in this regard. will be ditching ff and moving to other browser, dont have time to waste.
