What you could do is open the profile folder with a file browser. Copy whatever you want to a thumb drive.

And then how do i import that on the Firefox of my new computer?

You can copy the files with specific personal data in the Firefox profile folder to an USB stick and copy them to the Firefox profile folder on the other computer.

See the KB article about what files you need.

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

You can also look at the FEBE extension.

I want to add that history to the history that i already have on the new computer though. So does that action replace what i already have or does it add to it? Like does is delete the history that i already have on the new computer? Thx for the help.
