Hello

I have created a new FX Profile, and wish to move all the passwords saved in web pages in the old profile to the new profile. What is the filename of the file?

I looked on the Help and it said key3.db stores the passwords. I copied that across, rebooted and they are not there.

Thankyou for your help.

key3.db and logins.json : These are the Password files. Copy Both !

Note that key3.db only stores the encryption key. The actual encoded names and passwords are in the logins.json file and can only be decoded with the matching key3.db file present.
