About Your IE Favorites and Settings

When you first open Firefox, you will be asked if you want to import Internet Explorer data and settings. This includes your saved Favorites, Cookies, History, and Preferences.

Importing data after you started using Firefox

If you do not choose to import your data when first starting Firefox, you can choose to do it later while Firefox is running.

  1. Open the File menu and select Import....
  2. Follow the guided steps to choose which data you want to import

Selecting data to import

Once you have chosen to import data from Internet Explorer, Firefox will ask you which data you would like to import. By default, all data is imported.

If you only want to import certain data, simply uncheck the boxes next to any data you don't want Firefox to load.
