This will remove all your custom settings and the settings of many extensions.

Hello

I was reading this article of knowledge and he says:
"This will delete all your custom settings and many extensions settings."
What are the custom settings?

for example one of these and what else
bookmarks?
Add - ons?
Top toolbar - Customize the toolbar
Add on the toolbar
Firefox/preferences
Authorization Manager settings
the new page open

Corrupted preference file
File preferences may be corrupt, Firefox prevents writing to it. If you delete this file, Firefox will automatically create another when it comes to.

Here's how to delete the prefs.js file.

This will remove all your custom settings and the settings of many extensions.
Open your profile folder:

In the menu bar, click the Help menu and select troubleshooting information. The troubleshooting information tab will open.

In the section the Application databases, click view in the Finder. It will open a window with the folder of your profile.
Note: If you are unable to open or use Firefox, follow the instructions for finding your profile without having to open Firefox.

In the menu bar, click Firefox and select Quit Firefox

Locate the prefs.js file (and, if applicable, the prefs.js.moztmp file).
Delete these files and files prefs - n.js where n is a number (e.g. prefs - 2.js).
If there is, remove the Invalidprefs.js.
Restart Firefox. You should now have reset all preferences.

Based on information from preferences not saved (mozillaZine KB)

#1: there are too many pref for all kinds of adjustment which will offer a recipe of what you lose and how to keep certain parameters.
It is possible to copy specific lines of a prefs.js to this file in another profile or restore some settings after deleting this file in the current profile folder.

All the prefs that show as a user defined and appear in bold on the topic: config page are stored in the prefs.js file.

This includes the changes you make and data Firefox itself and extensions store as data/parameters in a pref.
It's

#2,3: the localstore.rdf file stores the toolbar configuration and other data.

#4: the current versions of Firefox shows the menu entry "Tabs" at the top menu ' display > toolbars "and" Firefox > Options ' and in the menus toolbar pop-up if the tabs are not in the default position on the top.

If the notches located on the top and the menu entry is not available and you want to move the tabs under the navigation toolbar, then you have to toggle the pref browser.tabs.onTop false on the subject: config page.

A restart of Firefox is necessary for updating the menu entry to display or remove.

Note that this pref will no longer effect when the code Australis lands on the output channel (code Australis will probably land in Firefox 29).

#5: see https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Clear+Recent+History

Compensation of the "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-ups, installing the software, stored passwords in permissions.sqlite and other site specific data stored in content - prefs.sqlite (including zoom on the page).

Deletion of cookies will delete all specified (selected) cookies, including cookies with an exception allowing you want to keep.

#6,7: history of search bar is the story of the search bar (Google) on the Navigation toolbar.

All recorded data to a form on a web page is included in the data in the form, but you can not separate and distinguish the two.

Browsing history is the history of the web pages you have visited.

#8: session cookies are always kept in memory and never stored on the disc in cookies.sqlite

You can only delete specific cookies manually in the Cookie Manager or leave cookies expire when you close Firefox to make them behave like session cookies.

Cookies of other compensation will include all cookies and don't obey the exceptions that you have made.

#9
Data stored in storage DOM is not stored in cookies.sqlite, but it is generally stored in the webappsstore.sqlite file or possibly in the form of data in IndexedDB.

  • I need to learn how to remove trojan my computer files and the registry.

    Original title: cleaning your pc

    I need to learn how to remove trojan my computer files and the registry. There is a financial has now attached ittibu or something. and how to remove the event source errors and all that is connected to this.

    If you make financial transactions online and feel your system has been compromised, the more experienced people will recommend wipe you your HARD drive and reinstall your XP from scratch, but that is not always possible and of course is up to you depending on how you feel about this (you need to feel good about it).

    If you still think your system may be achieved a malware, I would do these things before you start any troubleshooting effort:

    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs at:

    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/

    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

    Download and run Hitman Pro here and during installation to be 100% sure to refuse the installation of toolbars, decline any e-mail options, nothing to do with Bing or MSN, perform a scan time, accept no e-mail and activate the free license:

    http://www.SurfRight.nl/en/downloads/ (make sure you get the free version)

    Download and run TDSSKiller from Kaspersky:
    http://support.Kaspersky.com/viruses/solutions?QID=208280684

    The scans by operating clean, then to solve any problems.

    If you still think that you have any questions, then proceed as follows:

    Since the Microsoft Answers forum does not have any kind of information system request when a new question is asked, we know absolutely nothing about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

    Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

    Provide information on your system, the better you can:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    What is your Internet browser and version?

    Your system's disks IDE or SATA drives?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

    You have a genuine XP installation CD bootable, which is the same Service as your installed Service Pack (this is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    Do you see that you think not you should see and when you see it?

    What do not you think that you should see?

    If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

    If you need help interpreting your logs in Event Viewer, follow these steps:

    Here is a method to display specific information about individual events.

    To view the logs in Event Viewer, click Start, settings, Control Panel, administrative tools, event viewer.

    A shortcut to the event viewer is to click on start, run and enter in the box:

    %SystemRoot%\system32\eventvwr.msc

    Click OK to launch the event viewer.

    The most interesting newspapers are usually the system and Application logs.

    Some newspapers such as security and Internet Explorer may be completely empty or have just a few items.  The default settings for XP wants do not connect all this activity, unless you need to solve a problem in these areas.  If you enable logging for them the papers fill up quickly and could adversely affect the performance of your system with all the extras (often unnecessary) activity.

    If you have Microsoft Office installed, it has its own newspapers, and they can be empty or occasional boring activity very little or, if there is no problem with your desktop applications.  It's normal.

    Not every event is a problem, some are informational messages that things work very well, and some are warnings.

    However, no event should defy reasonable explanation.

    Each event is sorted by Date and time.  Errors will be red Xs, warnings will have yellow! s.
    Informational messages have white is.  Not every error or warning event means that there is a serious question.

    Some are excusable at boot time when Windows starts.  Try to find only the events to the date and time around your problem.

    If you double-click on an event, it will open a window of properties with more information.  On the right are black up and down arrow keys to scroll through the open events. The third button that looks like two overlapping pages is used to copy the details of the event in your Windows Clipboard.

    When you find an interesting event that occurred at the time of your question, click on the third button at the top and arrows to copy the details and then you can paste the details (right click, paste or CTRL-V) the text in detail here for analysis.  Remove all personal information from your information after you paste If you are forced to do so.

    If you paste an event, it will look something like this annoying system startup event:

    Event type: Information
    Event source: Service Control Manager
    Event category: no
    Event ID: 7035
    Date: 14/07/2010
    Time: 17:54:18
    User: Jose
    Computer: computer

    Description:
    The Remote Access Connection Manager service was sent successfully a starting control.

    To get a fresh start on any log of the event viewer, you can choose to clear the log (the log backup is available), and then reproduce your problem, then just look at the events around your show and troubleshoot events that are happening when you have your question.

    I don't know what I did.  All the application icons are moved from the home page.   The menu button does nothing. The trackball does not have anthing. The only thing on the screen is the time, date, battery, new mail envelope, signal and volume. I pulled the battery and it has no effect. I don't know what to do. Help!

    Hey, JSammy.  I had mine works again with the help of someone from another site.  Here's what you need to do: press the green call button, then the menu button.  Select options, then on options General, highlight "dial from homescreen" and the value. Save and exit. Now on your home screen, press "O".  After that, the General menu options will come.  Choose the option 'theme' and choose a different theme or return to the default value.  This should be all your application icons to reappear.  After doing all this make sure you go back to reset the "dial" since the homescreen on 'yes '.  I hope it works for you.

  • Adobe, your customer service to the DPS overflows with excruciating.

    Can you please help me understand why when I call your customer service about the pricing and digital publishing suite that not a single soul in this building knows something about products within the company they work.  It's absolutely ridiculous.

    Since the "new pricing" came into force... we were always having charged at the old rate. We tried to get this rectified with someone at Adobe, but of course you make it impossible to actually talk to someone in North America.

    We have an invoice number, an order number, number, customer number on contracts, to charge the number...

    all these numbers but still... no phone number to actually talk to someone to answer questions about the billing. It is even not a phone number on the invoice that you send me.


    You should be ashamed.

    You call the customer service number? The line of support in company (formerly named gold) is on the first page of the DPS dashboard? Or the General line of Adobe support?

    If you sent me a private message with your contract number, customer number and contact information, I tender one hand to help you.
