How can I export Feeds and Cookies from Firefox?
I always use Firefox on my pc at home. But now I have to use elswhere also another PC on which is only IE an Edge. As I need my saverd paswords from Firefox as well I have to export not only my bookmarks but also the Feeds and Cookies. Looking for a possibility to do that, everywhere they talk about an Add-on to do that. But that Add-on does not work in the latest version of Firefox. So how have I to act to get also my "saved passwords" into the EI or Edge browser on the oder pc. If possible please "step by step"
Thank you

You can copy personal data you need to transfer to the other computer to a USB jump stick and paste the files in the profile folder on the other computer with Firefox closed.
You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
- Help -> Troubleshooting Information -> Profile Directory:
Windows: Show Folder; Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
You can copy files like these with Firefox closed to the current profile folder to recover specific data.
- bookmarks and history: places.sqlite
- bookmark backups: compressed .jsonlz4 backups in the bookmarkbackups folder
- cookies.sqlite for the cookies
- formhistory.sqlite for saved form data
- logins.json and key3.db (decryption key) for Passwords saved in the Password Manager
- cert8.db and possibly cert_override.txt for (intermediate) certificates stored in the Certificate Manager
- persdict.dat for words you added to the spelling checker dictionary
- permissions.sqlite for Permissions and possibly content-prefs.sqlite for other Site Preferences
- sessionstore.jsonlz4 for open tabs and pinned tabs

Yes OK But... I may and can not use Firefox on this pc. I really have to use IE or Edge. How do I get the saved paswords from firefox in EI or Edge. That is the question I like to see an answer to.
You are asking Firefox to solve a Microsoft issue........... https://www.tenforums.com/ https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/f/229/windows-10-support/ https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us
Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
Sorry, but it's not a Windows problem. This reaction is not fair. It is a question to make Firefox easy to use on Windows ! I still see no solution that works. Please HELP
I think there has to be a way to export the saved paswords into a HTML file that is possible to import in IE or Edge. Does anybody knows how I can do that. Thanks
