I mounted my windows disk and acces profile folder this is my windows 10 Profiles.ini content.

When I go to my windows 10 and i open firefox i go to "about:support" and the profile im using is 4mltjd12.default So what i try is to move this profile to my ubuntu 18.04 firefox profile and load it

sudo cp -r Profiles/4mltjd12.default /home/localhost/.mozilla/firefox/

Hi Localhost, please ignore the spam message promoting an unofficial phone number.

Can you confirm there are no other Firefox processes running that could be accessing that profile folder?

Do you have a parent.lock file in any of the profile folders?

If you start up Firefox in the external Profile Manager dialog, can you successfully start in any of the profiles? More info: Profile Manager - Create, remove or switch Firefox profiles -- see the "when Firefox is closed" section.
