Started Firefox and a pop up from Mozilla asked if I wanted to speed up starting time because it was slow opening. There was a suggestion to use reset. I already knew that feature was available but I didn't want to set it to "factory settings" when I have very many extension addons, the options are set like I want, and the program runs fine after it starts. I didn't see where "extension add-ons" were kept inside the profile. I want to know if all the EXTENSION ADD_ONS are saved anywhere, or will I have to find and reinstall all of them again??

Did you try the suggestions here?

See this article about information about the Firefox profile folder:

When you reset Firefox then a new profile is created and some personal data (bookmarks, history, cookies, passwords, form data) is automatically imported and the current profile folder will be moved to the desktop to an "Old Firefox Data" folder. Installed extensions and other customizations (toolbars, prefs) that you have made are lost and need to be redone.

It is possible to recover data from the old profile, but be cautious to avoid carrying over problems.
