copy - paste

copy - paste the profile or the whole firefox portable folder.

However note, that some extensions are not well made and will kind of 'disable' itself when that path has changed more then the drive letter. You can jut reinstall those extensions and all is done.

I copied profile to another

I copied profile to another installation and it works fine.

Another thing is, I don't like new Firefox look,
I like old "classic" interface, like it is shown in the picture above,
with big icons and text,
not like the look in new firefox (below in the picture). Is there a way to transfer appearance from old installation to new installation, and which folder or file should I copy?
