## Description

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.

<strong>How it works</strong>
<ol><li>Click the toolbar icon and choose "Export Add-ons." The extension opens a searchable checklist of your installed add-ons, organized into <strong>Enabled</strong> and <strong>Disabled</strong> sections.</li><li>Select the add-ons you want to export, then click "Export Selected." The extension creates an HTML report containing the selected add-ons, with direct links to their Mozilla Add-ons pages whenever available.</li><li>On your other browser or Firefox profile, install Add-ons Exporter, choose "Import Add-ons," and select the exported HTML report.</li><li>The extension shows a searchable checklist of the add-ons in the report, organized into <strong>Already Installed</strong> and <strong>Not Installed Yet</strong> sections.</li><li>Select the add-ons you want to restore, then click "Open Selected" to open their Mozilla Add-ons pages in new tabs.</li><li>Click "Add to Firefox" for the add-ons you want to reinstall.</li></ol>
<strong>Why it works this way</strong>

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.
