User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:34.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/34.0
Build ID: 20141126041045
Steps to reproduce:
tried to get my firefox setting into new computer during firefox install there as per https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profiles
Actual results:
since the backup path in there is wrong for win7 and win8, I used
%AppData%\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
and failed miserably
Expected results:
1) the old firefox should have an export function that puts all relevant info in a ff-profile-old.zip
2) the profile manager of the fresh installation on my new machine should have an import function taking that zip
