Just to be safe, we recommend you create a backup of Firefox profile folder to a safe location and restore the same folder if you find that something is missing after reinstalling Firefox (very very unlikely though). However, we cannot guarantee the same for later versions! IMPORTANT: We have tested this method with Firefox v59 and works great. In short, you are not deleting Firefox profile data when you uninstall it.Ĭomplete the given directions to reinstall Firefox on Windows 10 and earlier versions without losing data. When you re-install Firefox on the same Windows installation again, Firefox starts using the data from that profile folder. The thing is that the Firefox uninstaller doesn’t delete data from your Firefox profile folder (which includes important data such as passwords, history, bookmarks, and cookies) and you need to manually delete the profile folder if you want to remove these data from your PC. The uninstaller no longer displays this option but doesn’t delete the profile data. As you likely know, in older versions of Firefox (v30 or before), there would be “Remove my Firefox personal data and customizations” option while uninstalling the Firefox.
