Using the utility is simpleâ€â€￾just launch the no-install-required executable and go run through the wizard to backup or restore your browser profiles. The software handles backing up Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, and even Operaâ€â€￾there are still a few restore glitches with IE and Opera, but it's a useful utility worth a look for anybody looking to transfer settings from one machine to another.
