Keep backup of your Firefox passwords and add-ons

If you are using firefox, then definitely you have dome add-ons and saved passowrds. I have more than 100 password saved in my firefox. What happens when I have to remove firefox for any reason and re install it? Or more worse situation, if I have to reinstall Windows?

Export the saved passwords in a file.

The problem has a ready-made solution. Firefox has an add-on that can backup and restore all saved passwords in XML format or CVS (coma separated values) file. These backup files can be re-imported to any system having Firefox. You can Keep this file in a pen drive and even put them in all of your computers.

Password Exporter is the add on for this work. Just download it and restart firefox.

To use it, open Tools->Add-ons and click the "option" tab of Password Exporter. Choose "export password" or Import password  button.


Save your add ons in a file

OPIE is a Firefox add-on that lets you backup your other Firefox add-ons. Just get it and run.
