Had to reinstall firefox browser on my windows laptop. Would like to pair the ff browser on my android tablet with my windows laptop.

Windows laptop asks me for code to complete pairing. I am unable to locate the code on my android tablet.

Whats the best way to proceed or find the code?

Thanks.

hello tom6720, on your android phone go into the system's settings app & into accounts & synchronisation (might be worded slightly different on different android devices), go to firefox sync & tap on pair a device.

on your desktop go to firefox > options > sync > set up firefox sync > i have an account which will show you a 3x4 character code that you'll have to enter into your android device in order to complete the process.
