|  | 🟩 Previous: [Overrides [To RFP or Not]](https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/wiki/3.3-Overrides-[To-RFP-or-Not]) | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | 🟥 Summary: **We do not need one** | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | --- | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | 🟪 APPLY | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | If you are not using a new profile, we recommend running our [cleanup script](https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/tree/master/scratchpad-scripts), the instructions are in the file | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | 🔹 Put all the relevant files into the root folder of your profile <sup>[1]</sup> | ||||||
|  |   - `prefsCleaner` | ||||||
|  |   - `updater` | ||||||
|  |   - `user.js` | ||||||
|  |   - `user-overrides.js` (which you created) | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | Continue with the UPDATE part below | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | [1] To find your profile, open `about:support` and look for `Profile Folder` under `Application Basics` | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | 🟪  UPDATE | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | - 🔹 run the updater | ||||||
|  |    - so the contents of your `user-overrides.js` is appended to the `user.js` | ||||||
|  | - 🔹 ALWAYS run prefsCleaner | ||||||
|  |    - make sure Firefox is closed | ||||||
|  |    - this will reset prefs that aren't needed or can cause issues, as well as keep things clean and tidy | ||||||
|  |    - you can read more about prefsCleaner next | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | 🟪  MAINTAIN | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | Starting with v97, arkenfox changes to the live master will happen once per release: all changes will be done in a separate branch and only merged when finished. I cannot guarantee when I will release each one - hopefully within a week of the Firefox release. Virtually nothing changes these days that will affect you in that time delay. | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | So ... once a release ... check for the latest [changelog](https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/issues?utf8=✓&q=is%3Aissue+label%3Achangelog), run the updater, and run prefsCleaner (with Firefox closed) | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | --- | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | 🟩 Next: [prefsCleaner](https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/wiki/3.5-prefsCleaner) | ||||||
