If you want to go back and forth between release and beta on a single profile, that’s not recommended. If you want to switch your current beta profile permanently to an installation of the stable release, you can do that from the terminal (command line) by running the Firefox executable with the -p parameter to select a profile. The documentation has instructions on where the profile is located and how to find which profile is used.
- daveFNbuck 6y agoI just want to switch one time. I got on the beta like a year ago when the current version was unstable, and I've been trying to get back to release since that version was released. Where can I find this documentation? How do I install the stable release to port the profile to? Every attempt I've made results in me still having the beta version.
- bhaile 6y agoYou need to create a new profile with the stable release. How to create a new profile. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-remove-switch-firefox-profiles https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-... Install the stable version but don't run it yet. Then follow the instructions to start the Profile Manager when Firefox is closed. If you need to recover data from your old profile, the link above has instructions too.
