Looked like my question disappear. Let me repeat. I try to move information from old PC into a new one. Used to be easy before, now there is only an option to import Opera files. Please advise what part of APP Data to copy from the old comp? Thanks.

Hi,

  1. Type about:support in addessbar on old Windows Firefox and press Enter;
  2. Press "Open containing folder" button;
  3. New Windows Explorer Window will appear;
