Thanks for your patience, gym. I'm very spooked about this because the
last time I tried installing 115.0.3 (not ESR) to a different hard
drive, it still wiped out my 108.0.1 profile on my "C" drive. I had to
restore my "C" drive from a backup to recover FF. There was probably
an easier way to do it but that was one way that I knew would work!

So, let me ask you a specific example:

If I install 115.21.0 ESR to my "F" drive, will it have any effect on
my 108.0.1 on my "C" drive?

If not, is it possible to then import my extensions from 108.0.1 on
"C" to 115.21.0 on "F", or would they need to be re-installed?

Is there a way to make 115 look like 108? i.e. Tabs on top, toolbars
the same etc?

Thanks again for you help and patience.

Done. All Mozilla files are copied to another hard drive (not "F").
