How do I save changes to about: config?

I change the url for keyword in all: config but do not know how to save this change. So just close the tab or the browser, the old return parameters.

How do I save changes to about: config?

The changes are saved when you close Firefox completely, not just a tab.

If a change is not having registered, you probably have something installed that changes every time you start Firefox the pref. You must get rid of the cause, t00.

  • How do I change Google to DuckDuckGo when you CTRL + K or CTRL + J? (I have already changed the about: config > keyword.url)

    Hello. I have something I want to change the default behavior, but I can't do it.

    Here's what I want to do: I want to change www.google.com to www.duckduckgo.com. However, when I do CTRL + J or CTRL + K he continues to send me on www.google.com.

    Here's what I did: I found that the search bar is now useless. Indeed, the "awesome bar" is so awesome that I have basically need the bar more research. Thus, for a long time, I took it.

    There is only an advantage. When the search bar disappeared, the shortcut which was to place the cursor on the search bar got another behavior. When I use CTRL + K (CTRL + J), the page would automatically change to www.google.com.

    I liked this behavior, because at the time, I used google as my search engine.

    But now I want to duckduckgo, I'm kind of embarrassed by it, especially since I cannot change this behavior. I have re-enabled the search bar and changed the search option above to DuckDuckGo, in hopes that will change behavior. He did not.

    In addition, as DuckDuckGo has said, I changed on: config keyword.url and keyword.enable.

    But I still have the www.google.com when I press CTRL + K/J

    I asked the question to my stream of Diaspora ( http://diasp.org ) and was able to get a solution in the day. Go figure. Before doing this, you will already have DuckDuckGo added to your list of search engine (in the drop box).

    Hi there, my computer recently virus research Delta. I deleted all Delta programs on my computer and reset my internet options so that everything works fine now. I also have Webroot SecureAnywhere installed on my computer and a recent analysis said that I had no threats. However, when I go on the subject: config page, there are still several extensions.delta entries. I tried right click and hit reset, then by restarting Firefox and it didn't work.

  • Since the installation of 4.0.1 I can't do a right-click on the icon in my taskbar and have Firefox give me the option "close and save" tabs. Only let's me know, I'm about to close several tabs. How to make 'save & close' return?

    Before installing 4.0.1 I could right click on the Firefox icon in the task bar of my computer and press on the window. He would then give me the option to "save the tabs and exit" or "close all tabs".
    Now he comes and tells me I'm going to close several tabs.

    It was convenient to be able to close Firefox and open it with all the tabs in place. There is nothing more annoying than to have several tabs lost because your computer has is an update of the day overnight and restarted. It is also useful when you want to run a tun - up or cleaner who asked that closing your browser for best results.

    How to make 'save and exit' return?

    Thank you

    Firefox stores now always the old session, and you can access it by going to the history menu and selecting "restore previous Session."

    If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned on again by changing some preferences.

    1. Type of topic: config in the address bar and press on enter
    2. Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    3. Find browser.tabs.warnOnClosepreference, if its value is set to false, double-click on it to change its value to true
    4. Repeat this for 3 preferences browser.warnOnQuit, the browser.warnOnRestart and the browser.showQuitWarning

    If you always open the last set of tabs, another approach is the following:

    1. Click on the orange button Firefox, then select options to open the options window
    2. Go to the general Panel
    3. Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "show my windows and tabs from last time '.

    New tab override (browser.newtab.url replacement)
    https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/new-tab-override/

    With Firefox 41 (and later versions), it is no longer possible to customize the
    page displayed in a new tab by the evolution of the browser.newtab.url preference
    in the about.config. Due to the fact that the hijackers abused the
    preference in the past, Mozilla has decided to remove (see bug 1118285).
    Fortunately, by removing it, Mozilla has also introduced a new API to bring
    This feature to life as an add-on. This module allows the user
    Choose a page in a new tab.

  • changes to browser.newtab.url about: config no longer work

    I tried the user - set the page to a new tab in everything: changing browser.newtab.url config

    I followed the suggestion of extensions to https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1081409, but I have no extensions enabled. None of the other suggestions were relevant.

    41 of Firefox is no longer uses the browser.newtab.url setting in about: config because he was constantly attacked by malware. From 41 of Firefox, you need an add-on to change the new tab page.

    Here are a few options (I'm learning more all the time):

    • If you are already using the "Restorer of classic theme" or "Tab Mix Plus" extension: There is an option somewhere (!) in his dialogues of the parameters to select another page in the new tab.

    Use only one of these methods at the same time, otherwise there may be conflicts and dysfunctions.

    Setting up substitute new tab and new tab custom

    After installing one of these extensions, you must use the Options page to set the new desired tab page (instead of use subject: config).

    Open the page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a (Mac: Cmd + shift + a)
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then on the side right, find the new tab replace or custom new tab and click on the Options button. (See first screenshot attached).

    New tab Override

    Depending on the size of your screen, you may need to scroll down to enter the address in the form. (See second screenshot attached). For example:

    • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
    • Blank tab = > subject: empty
    • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
    • Any other page = > full URL of the page

    Then tab or click this form field and you can test using Ctrl + t.

    Custom new tab

    It is easy to enter your favourite homepage address. If you check either of the boxes, the expansion will set the focus in the page as well, for example, the cursor will be in the Google search box. (See third screenshot attached). I had to leave Firefox and start it up again before new custom tab started working, but this may have been due to tests so many extensions back to back.

    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode without failure.

    Your list of details of the system shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize prefs each time you start Firefox.

    The user.js file is present than if you or another software has created this file and normally it wouldn't be here.
    You can check its contents with a text editor (right click: open with) If you do not create this file yourself.

    The user.js file is read whenever Firefox is started and initializes the preferences to the specified value in this file, so the preferences set via user.js can be changed temporarily for the current session.

  • I did the screen too small (using about: config) and lost the address bar and all the menus. How to restore the display on a screen size can be used?

    I changed the size of display screen using about: config, as stated in the other answers help. After you use a value of 1.0, such as recommended, I've experimented with other sizes, because it seems small. I have entered a large number by chance (a typing error) and made the display so small that only a bug could read. And I lost all the features: bar address, menus, home, Favorites, settings icons.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, thinking that this would fix it. But the new facility displays the same way: unreadable and no functionality.

    I found instructions on resetting to the factory settings, but cannot perform this task because I have to be able to access the menus to do so.

  • Coming out of the block how to invite the message like "do you want to save changes?" so any changes made in the current block

    Hello

    I'm working on the Oracle forms 6i. I have a custom query search window (do not use the Oracle QUERY_FIND seeded window feature). Build manually (BLOCK_1 and WINDOW_1). When I click on the search button, then I Block table that has windows (BLOCK_2 and WINDOW_2) and in this form, I have a button called details. When I click on the Details button, it opens the details Block (BLOCK_3 and WINDOW_3).

    There is no functionality seeded t define the relationship of master details. (everything is customized)

    Now, if the user has made a few changes on the block of retail and click the X (close) on this window without COMMIT the record, then how can I display a message to the user as a block level saying that "Do You want to save changes?" and after selecting one of the action i.e. Yes, no or cancel how to perform the action according to the user's action.

    This form I have three different blocks and WINDOWS for individual block so when i have all three open window and click on F4, then it closes all windows of three then how can I close the window when the user uses them short key F4 to close the window.

    Thank you very much in advance.

    Melanie,

    Thanks for the update. I tried KEY-EXIT, WHEN now-BLOCK-INSTANCE, KEY of VALIDATION, but unfortunately these triggers are not fired. I found the work around that.

    I made after the code in the APP_CUSTOM package in the close_window procedure.

    IF: SYSTEM. BLOCK_STATUS = 'CHANGE '.

    THEN

    FND_MESSAGE. SET_STRING (' do you want to save the changes you made?) ');

    l_button:-fne_message.question(button1...icon);

    and then based on the user action that performs the action.

    END IF;

    It works for me. Problem solved.

    Thank you very much for your time and your suggestions.
