I would recommend the solution from this question: https://support.mozilla.org/hu/questions/1020790

So, save the pages into bookmarks, then backup your profile before wiping the computer.

I also have a converter tool you can use to turn your current session history file into a web page of clickable links. You then can save that in cloud storage (e.g., Microsoft OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox) as a further backup.
