In Firefox, what exactly does "Reset Firefox" do?
What exactly does the "Reset Firefox" function do in Firefox? (Firefox->Help->Troubleshooting Information->Reset Firefox) It says that things get reset to their default state -- is there a precise list of things that get reset?
I've been using the same Firefox profile for almost two years, using it across version upgrades. It was recommended that I do a "Reset Firefox", purely for good measure, having amassed a profile across so many versions.
While I'm OK to do this, I don't want to lose my extensions, preferences, history, etc. I've fully backed all of these up with/through extensions "FEBE" and "OPIE". But I'm wondering if, after doing a "Reset Firefox", my restoring of things from my old profile are merely going to bring the outdated/cluttered garbage back to the surface.
