I'm an older pensioner, I've no wish to learn more tech stuff which is unconnected with my question. For years I've been concerned at the invasive nature of Microsoft products and so want to get rid of Win10/11 and install another OS. (I have hundreds of documents in Wordpad (.rtf) and MS are just cancelling it!) It'll probably be Linux based. So, simply I want to take my existing Firefox browser with passwords etc., to my new OS. I asked this question in Firefox and it seems Mozilla can't get over the fact that I don't want change my iOS browser to a synched up Firefox. I don't want my phone connected to my pc. Perhaps that is difficult for today's tech whizz-kids to understand but I can't help that. I'm not really technical but have had Firefox for nearly 30 years, so can anyone tell me if it's possible to copy my Firefox into a folder somewhere perhaps, and reconstitute it to work with my new OS? It certainly used to be possible. Thanks.

I wanted to completely disable TLS 1.3 when using Firefox, so I set security.tls.version.max to 3 (which corresponds to TLS 1.2). That worked up until I got version 140.0.4 installed - now it completely ignores this setting no matter what I set. I tried using cloudflare-ech.com website for test and it confirms that my browser uses TLS 1.3 with ECH. I also tried modifying security.tls.version.fallback-limit to 0 and security.tls.version.min to 0 to get a possible range of TLS 1.0-1.2, but it still uses TLS 1.3.

When using any Microsoft 365 product on the browser I keep getting a prompt to "Please sign in" although I am already signed in. I can click the Sign in button and a about:blank page pops up for a split second. Then within a half hour or so, it will pop up again. I deleted my cookies but the problem still persists. Does not happen on other browsers.
