Cannot create local backup
Hi,
On the "Your Firefox has updated" page, I recently found out that in addition to Firefox Sync, you can also create a backup in the form of a local file. When I try to follow the instructions on the support page for the function (here I get stuck. For some reason I am only allowed to choose a file to restore my data, but I am not allowed to create a new backup. I have tried refreshing Firefox and even creating a new profile, but both have the same issue. I am not seeing a "manage backup" button either (see screenshot).
It's not the end of the world thanks to Firefox Sync, but I would like to get it working as a nice backup :)
Thanks in advance for any help you guys can give me!

Hi,
As mentioned on the WhatsNew page, backup is currently available on Windows 10 only. On Windows 11, for now, you can only restore from already created backups.
