I'm about to change my pc and am busy sorting out what I want to transfer to the new pc.

Firefox currently saves my passwords for various online web sites. Is there any way I can transfer these from this computer to my new one? If yes what's the location of the file I need to export?

O/S in both cases is Windows 7.

As ever with firefox, there's an add-on that will do it.

https://addons.mozill...on/password-exporter/

(you'll need to install it on the new machine to import them)

Whilst saving what I wanted to keep and put on to my new pc by transferring photo's, music, documents, favourites, passwords to an external HDD. I also used 'Windows Easy Transfer' program (it comes with W7) and put a copy of that on to the external HDD.

When I got the new pc up and running I used the 'Windows Easy Transfer' and lo' and behold everything was transferred including favourites and passwords, without touching my exported favourites and passwords files. It took a while to go through probably because the file was 60Gb in size.

Chucks answer was the best answer to my question, but 'Windows Easy Transfer' can do it as well.
