Hi
I recommend you have a read of this article which explains where to find important information in your Firefox Profile (and how to find your profile).
You can take a copy of the entire folder (if you want to preserve everything), but if you are just looking to capture your log in ID and passwords, you will need to make a back up of your key3.db and logins.json files. These can then be copied into and allowed to overwrite the equivalent files in a blank profile.
I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look into a different solution for you.

If you have any issues after copying over the entire contents of the Profile folder, take a look at the prefs.js file (with Firefox closed) and edit out any internal file paths. Not much of a problem recently, but years ago that would cause a good number of problems due to exact paths towards the Windows file system, usually caused by extensions.
