@ -23,7 +23,7 @@ Here is how it basically works:
* The contents of `prefs.js` override the default values shown in `about:config`
* If a preference in `prefs.js` has a data mismatch, then it is ignored and the ~~default~~ **previous value** is retained (this could be the default or a user-set value set earlier within about:config) and shown in `about:config`
* In `about:config`
* All values stored in `prefs.js`, even if they are the default value, will be denoted as status `user set`. In Firefox 56+ it is denoted as `modifed`
* All values stored in `prefs.js`, even if they are the default value, will be denoted as status `user set`. In Firefox 55+ it is denoted as `modifed`
* If you set a value to a `user set`/`modifed` value, it is stored in `prefs.js`
* If you reset a value to `default`, it is removed from `prefs.js`
* If you reset a `hidden preference` to default, the value will be blank, and assuming it is not applied again from a `user.js`, it will then vanish on the next about:config reload
