Hello, I found a discontinued tool, facebook forensic tool, but it is not available anymore.
What software do you use to clone and copy to disk facebook profiles for further extractions?
thank you

The tool I've been using lately with good success is ExtractFace (http//le-tools.com/ExtractFace.html). It requires a specific browser (Firefox ESR) and a Firefox add-on (MozRepl), but it works consistently well. And it is free.

Haven't done FB forensics, but i have dabbled in OSINT quite a bit. A programmable browser that saves content to disk is quite handy, there is even one included within Visual Studio that you can use, you have to send commands to scroll down to activate AJAX and load more data though as this does not happen without user interaction. Obviously you also need to create an account on FB to be able to see some profiles as some are not set to public.

Also, a simple screenshot program can be used to save content to disk.

You can also use the now (in)famous FB API to get data from profiles and groups. It's more restricted now than earlier, but it is still somewhat useful.

I have osforensic too, but I never used to clone a webpage.
If i open it and I go to browser, I can input an address, but when I get to the facebook account I have to clone, I see a window that allows me to chose how deep I can go, and it seems veeeery deep, which options do I have to select?
