Firefox 5 is not compatible with my Roboform. I use that program all the time, and it works with Firefox 4. How can I revert to the previous version of Firefox?

Chosen solution

To downgrade to Firefox 4 first uninstall Firefox 5 beta, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.

You can then install the latest version of Firefox 4 available from http://www.mozilla.com/ - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.

Thank you, TonyE! I had actually already figured that out (duh!) and uninstalled FF5 then installed FF4, with all my personal data intact. Hopefully FF5 will soon be compatible with my Roboform addon and I can try it out again.

Just install the latest Roboform 7.3.2 version and it works!
