Where is my Firefox Profile Folder?

This is a question we get time and time again, so I thought I would post the full listing for where your profile folder is for Mozilla Firefox based on your operating system of choice…

Windows 95 (without Desktop Update)
C:\Windows\Mozilla

Windows 95 (with Desktop Update)/98/Me
C:\Windows\Application Data\Mozilla\

C:\Windows\Profiles\<Windows login/user name>\Application Data\Mozilla\

Windows NT 4.x
C:\Winnt\Profiles\<Windows login/user name>\Application Data\Mozilla\

Windows 2000 and XP
C:\Documents and Settings\<Windows login/user name>\Application Data\Mozilla\

Windows Vista
C:\Users\<Windows login/user name>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\

Unix

Mac OS X
~/Library/Mozilla/

~/Library/Application Support/

Hope that helps you locate your Firefox profile folder.  If there is a location I missed, be sure to let me know and I will get it added.
