  For instructions see:
 | 
			
		||||
  https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/wiki/3.1-Resetting-Inactive-Prefs-[Scripts]
 | 
			
		||||
  Instructions:
 | 
			
		||||
  - [optional] close Firefox and backup your profile
 | 
			
		||||
  - [optional] disable your network connection [1]
 | 
			
		||||
  - start Firefox
 | 
			
		||||
  - load about:config and press Ctrl+Shift+K to open the Web Console for about:config
 | 
			
		||||
    - using about:config is important, so the script has the right permissions
 | 
			
		||||
  - paste this script
 | 
			
		||||
  - if you edited the list of prefs in the script, make sure the last pref does not have a trailing comma
 | 
			
		||||
  - hit enter
 | 
			
		||||
  - check the Info output to see which prefs were reset
 | 
			
		||||
  - restart
 | 
			
		||||
     - some prefs require a restart
 | 
			
		||||
     - a restart will reapply your user.js
 | 
			
		||||
  - [optional] re-enable your network connection
 | 
			
		||||
 
 | 
			
		||||
  [1] Blocking Firefox from the internet ensures it cannot act on your reset preferences in the
 | 
			
		||||
  period before you restart it, such as app and extension auto-updating, or downloading unwanted
 | 
			
		||||
  components (GMP etc). It depends on what you're resetting and how long before you restart.
