Hello everyone!

I´m trying to migrate my firefox prefs, bookmarks and passwords from ubuntu 10.04 to windows 7. I found plenty of advice on migration from windows to linux though... when I tried copying my profile information into the profile folder under windows, that didn´t change anything, no passwords, no cookies, no bookmarks etc. What should I do now?

Make sure that you copy the files from and to the correct location.
