When you use Firefox, all your data such as bookmarks, passwords, and settings are stored in a “profile.” Creating multiple profiles allows you to keep separate browsing data, themes, or settings for different purposes, such as work and personal use. This guide walks you through the steps to create, customize, and manage Firefox profiles. {for fx134} {warning} This feature is part of a gradual rollout and may not be available to all users yet. If you don’t see these options, you can still create and manage profiles using the ''about:profiles'' manager. See [[Profile Manager - Create, remove or switch Firefox profiles]] for details.{/warning} __TOC__ =Create a new profile= Want to start fresh with a new profile? Here’s how: #In the toolbar, click the account icon [[Image:IG profile]]. #Click Profiles, then {button + New profile}. Firefox will launch a new instance to create your new profile, meaning you will see two Firefox icons in your {for not mac}taskbar {/for}{for mac}dock{/for}. #Follow the on-screen prompts to set up your new profile. All of your changes will be saved automatically. #When you’re finished, close the tab or click {button Done editing}. #;[[Image:Customize new profile|width=700]] =Customize a profile= After setting up a profile, you can continue to personalize it by tweaking its name, theme, and avatar. *'''Profile name''': Give your profile a unique name to help you spot it easily. Profiles are listed alphabetically. *'''Profile theme''': Pick a theme to give each profile a unique color scheme. This is especially useful if you have multiple profiles open at the same time; different themes help you instantly see which profile's window you’re working in. *'''Profile avatar''': Choose an avatar that will also help you identify your profile. You’ll also see your avatar as a badge on the Firefox icon in your {for not mac}taskbar {/for}{for mac}dock{/for} that’s associated with that particular profile. To update your profile: #In the toolbar, click the account icon [[Image:IG profile]]. #Click the name of your current profile. #Click the edit icon in the top-right corner to edit your current profile. To edit a different profile, click {button Manage Profiles}. #Changes made to a profile’s customization are saved automatically. When you’re finished, close the tab or click {button Done editing} #;[[Image:Edit you profile|width=700]] =Open an existing profile= Switching profiles is super simple: #In the toolbar, click the account icon [[Image:IG profile]]. #Click the name of your current profile. #From the dropdown, just pick the profile you want to open. #;[[Image:Profile tab in account menu|width=400]] =Delete a profile= If you no longer need a profile, you can delete it easily by following these steps: #In the toolbar, click the account icon [[Image:IG profile]]. #Click the name of your current profile. #Click the edit icon in the top-right corner to proceed with deleting your current profile. To delete a different profile, click {button Manage Profiles}. #At the bottom-right, click {button Delete}. #Since deleting a profile is permanent, you can review the data that will be deleted, and then confirm by clicking {button Delete}. If you delete your last remaining profile, Firefox will re-open with a fresh profile. #;[[Image:Delete a profile|width=700]] =Use Sync with a new profile= You can sync data from your new profile with other devices that are signed into your [[Mozilla account - Managing account data|Mozilla account]]. To learn more, see [[How do I set up Sync on my computer?]] and [[How do I choose what information to sync on Firefox?]]. {note} '''Note''': Firefox prevents syncing multiple profiles with the same Mozilla account on the same device. If you try, Firefox will block the sync to keep profiles separate.{/note} ;[[Image:Account already in use|width=600]] =Choose a profile at Firefox startup= To see the option to choose which profile will open when Firefox starts: #In the toolbar, click the account icon . #Click {button Manage Profiles}. #Select '''Choose a profile when Firefox opens'''. If this is not selected, Firefox will open to the most recently used profile. #;[[Image:Choose a profile at Firefox startup|width=700]] =FAQs= ==Is this feature available on Android or iOS?== No, the profiles feature is currently not supported on Android or iOS. ==Does creating a new profile log me into an account or affect my sync settings?== No, creating or managing profiles does not log you into a Mozilla account or change any sync settings. [[How do I set up Sync on my computer?|Sync]] remains separate, and profiles allow you to set up different browsing environments without linking them automatically to an account. ==Will switching profiles mix my data if I’m signed into a Mozilla account?== No, switching profiles won’t merge or mix your data. Each profile keeps separate browsing data, bookmarks, and settings. You can only use a Mozilla account on one profile per device, so you can switch between profiles without worrying about data merging. ==Should I back up my profiles?== The best way to protect your profile data is by creating a Mozilla account for each profile. [[How do I set up Sync on my computer?|Sync]] automatically protects your data across devices, ensuring easy access whenever you need it. =Related articles= *[[Customize the Firefox home screen]] *[[Change website appearance settings in Firefox]] *[[Change the fonts and colors websites use]] {/for} {for not fx134} [[Image:Choose a profile at Firefox startup|width=700]] {warning} To access the new Firefox Profile Manager, please [[Update Firefox to the latest release|update]] to Firefox [[Which version of Firefox am I using?|version]] 134 or later.
