I've read the articles that tell you how to sync between devices and I've done everything in them. Sync is on on both pc laptops, and I've pressed sync on both. I'm not sure what exactly has synced but I'm ultimately, trying to get my open windows with their tabs onto the new device. I'm sure there I a simple step I'm missing. Please help!

Alternatively, you can transfer sessionstore.jsonlz4 from the profile folder on the old device to the profile folder on the new device.


You can copy certain files with Firefox closed to the current profile folder to transfer or recover personal data.

Note that best is to avoid copying a full profile folder.

You can use the button on the "Help -> More Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page (Root directory).
