<p>I use an add-on that makes backups of my user profile, Just In Case.
Unfortunately, it is not compatible with the current Firefox.
</p><p>Every now and then, open the profile folder and create
a <strong>copy</strong> of the current profile <strong>as is</strong> to another location
on your hard drive. This way you will have a backup.
</p><p>If you do this each day, you will not lose much data.
This should be done with <strong>Firefox Closed. </strong>
</p><p>Note: In case you need to restore from these backups,
you may need to overwrite old or corrupted files.
</p>Thank you.

I replaced the new Firefox Profile with the old one in Old Firefox but Firefox will not open with the old profile.
However I have spent a bit of time configuring the Profile Firefox has made for so that the layout has most of the same functionality as the old one. So I now consider my problem solved.

</p><p>Refreshing Firefox -- easily fix most problems
</p><p>If you're having problems with Firefox, refreshing it
can help. The refresh feature fixes many issues by
restoring Firefox to its factory default state while
saving your essential information like bookmarks
and open tabs.
Everything else, like user settings and add-ons, are removed.

<p>Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder
called; <strong>Old Firefox?</strong>
