About this extension
Add-ons Exporter lets you export a list of your installed Firefox add-ons and quickly restore them on another Gecko-based browser, such as Firefox, Zen, LibreWolf, or Waterfox, or in another Firefox profile.
How it works
Why it works this way
Firefox does not allow extensions to install other extensions automatically. Instead, Add-ons Exporter streamlines the reinstall process by opening the add-on pages for you, making it quick and convenient to restore your setup on another browser or Firefox profile.
