## Instructions
### Create a new profile
### Open the profile folder
1. To find your profile directory in Firefox, go to `about:support`.
2. Find the 11th item listed, **Profile Folder**, and select **Open Folder** button.
### Copy + paste contents
3. Close Firefox. Copy the contents of the folder.
4. In Explorer (Windows) or Finder (macOS), go back a page to see all the Firefox profiles.
5. Create a new folder, and paste the contents into it.
### Name your profile
6. Rename your copied folder to something meaningful, and keep the original name (for an easy rollback).
* For example, if the profile folder is called `jiu9k8gm.default`, a backup copy might be called `jiu9k8gm.default-backup` or `jiu9k8gm.default-pre-betterfox-userjs`.
7. Open the new profile folder and paste the contents into it.
