Note: Instead of manually resetting your search and home page preferences to the default values, you can use the Search Reset extension by Gavin Sharp.
#RESETTING MOZILLA FIREFOX SOFTWARE#
These modified preferences may not be reset when you uninstall the software or extension (see Uninstalling toolbars for details). Toolbar add-ons that include an Internet search feature, such as the Ask.com Toolbar, change the default search provider by modifying the Keyword.URL preference setting. Extensions installed as toolbars, often bundled with other software, can change your search or home page preferences.This will restore the default values of preferences displayed in about:config and restores the default theme.Įxtensions (add-ons) can also change preference settings for example: When you next reopen Firefox, it will rebuild the prefs.js file from program defaults. Delete the user.js file, if found, or move it to a backup location (this file does not exist by default).(If you find multiple numbered prefs.js files or a read-only "prefs.js.moztmp" file, delete those files as well and see this article). Open the Firefox profile folder (see the linked article for details).Caution: In Firefox 3.6 and below, the installation directory defaults/profile folder also includes a "prefs.js" file.This will not affect any data stored in other files, such as toolbar data stored in the " localstore.rdf" file or any file-opening associations stored in the " mimeTypes.rdf" file. You can reset user preferences to the default values by manually removing the preferences file prefs.js from the profile folder, as follows.
