I've used this for 2 years and in general like it. I've set it up for a photographer relative to tag his vast family and sport photo collections.

Note it is NOT intuitive. And for Portable users, there is a catch-22. Either all your files end up in one directory, or if you use Alias mode, the files remain where they are, but if you move them (say to a different directory structure or to a different drive), the hard-coded aliases are broken. They are in a UUIC-named text file and I have not been able to relate which alias to which file/document without opening the alias.

FirePasswordViewer v13.0 Updated

  • 1MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 6 Feb 2020
  • Suggested by guinness

FirePasswordViewer recovers login passwords stored by Firefox such as username and password for every website visited by the user. If the user chooses to save their password, FirePasswordViewer can recover these secrets and export them to HTML. If the master password is enabled, the program will require this to open the encrypted information.

The program is an interface for the FirePassword tool.

Note the main website download link has switched to an encrypted installer. Linking to softpedia.

Runs on:Win2K / WinXP / Vista / Win7
Writes settings to: Application folder
Stealth: ? Yes
License: Freeware
How to extract: Download the ZIP package and extract to a folder of your choice. Launch FirePasswordViewer.exe.

To view passwords in Portable Firefox, the "install" path will need to be set to PathInfo\FirefoxPortable\App\Firefox and "profile" will need to be set to PathInfo\FirefoxPortable\Data\profile.
What's new? New 2021 release with solution for Firefox sync password crash issue. Also tested successfully with latest Firefox version.

The program can create entire applications and has been used to create many hosted here on PortableFreeware including 7plus, WallPaper Randomizer, Gridy and many more.
