Hello, fellows!
Can someone please clarify if there's a way to reset all Firefox but not passwords?
Thanx!
PS Is there a Russian support branch?

Re: Reset all but passwords
Hi there,
The Russian site is here...
> http://forum.mozilla-russia.org/
It's much safer to back-up your Profile, create a new one & transfer your "stuff" over to it.
> http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_backup
& if necessary, you could back-up your Passwords using this free program...
> https://github.com/kspearrin/ff-password-exporter
Nirsoft's program may help as well...
> http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/passwordfox.html
Good luck. Hope this helps a bit.

Re: Reset all but passwords
You can backup logins.json and key4.db to have a backup of your passwords.
That is the most reliable way and you can simply place these two files in a Firefox profile to have access to the passwords.
There is a button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" page (about:support) to go to the currentb profile folder.
Make sure that Firefox is closed.
