Need toadd another user / same computer/ with their own bookmarks
I like Firefox.. My wife wants to use it with her own history/bookmarks/cookies etc.. have tried downloading again several times but it only opens to my account and settings.. Wish I couls go back to the window where I was offered a chance to include her.

Another possibility is to use multiple profiles and use a desktop shortcut for each of you to start Firefox by adding -P "profile-name" to the target line in the shortcut

You'll want to create a new user on the computer. https://www.wikihow.com/Create-a-New-User-Account-in-Windows-Vista-and-7 can help you do that
Just a note, Windows Vista is no longer supported, and not safe to use. Please update to either Windows 7 or 10, buy a new computer, or switch to linux.
