    simply ridiculous !!! you have ESU support for nt core 6.3.x still dont know for 6.1 and you dont extend support for edge??!?! how your systems with servers 2012 r2 gonna browser secure? so you ''forced'' them to use another browser? why then you keep supoort for 7 back in 2020?

    Sadly there is not much Microsoft can do about it since they are using Chromium source to build Edge.
    If anyone is to blame it's actually Google for stopping official development of Chromium for Pre-W10 OS.

    Entire Firefox profile can be backed up with this command.
    Type it from Command Prompt and then Mozilla folder with all your profiles (including extensions) will appear on your desktop.
    Code:
    xcopy "%APPDATA%\Mozilla" "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Mozilla\" /e /s /y

    And then:

    Find Firefox Bookmarks data:
    Code:
    dir /a /s /b "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Mozilla\places.sqlite"
    Find Firefox Logins/Password data:
    Code:
    dir /a /s /b "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Mozilla\logins.json"
    dir /a /s /b "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Mozilla\key4.db"

    Remove current Firefox profile and restore backed up Firefox profile from your Desktop:
    Code:
    rd /s /q "%APPDATA%\Mozilla"
    xcopy "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\Mozilla" "%APPDATA%\Mozilla\" /e /s /y

    The latest from Catalog update didn't match the W10's actual version (119.0.2151.72)

    We are talking about Windows 7 here, not about Windows 10.
    Versions of Chrome/Edge/WebView newer than v109 do NOT work on Windows 7 and 8.

    I know that. I would say Edge will not be updated for W7 anymore, but Firefox ESR have still updates for W7 so my recommandation is to use Firefox instead Edge.
