I was able to do this with no issues a while ago, However, when recently attempting to do a backup, I have encountered an issue. Helium shows me this message:

---

Backup Disallowed


Firefox has disallowed backup of application data. Please leave a comment with the developer of Firefox and ask them to allow application data backup.

Since this is disallowed, Is there perhaps a way to export all data within the app locally without going trough cloud sync?

Firefox Sync would do this. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-set-up-firefox-sync
