-So **some or all** of these REMOVED, INACTIVE, DEPRECATED, and REDUNDANT prefs **need to be manually reset** in `about:config`, depending on your configuration. And over time, the list builds up. Some are harmless (deprecated items will have no effect), but others are vital (prefs and sections are INACTIVE for a reason, so it pays for your `prefs.js` to be in "sync"). Add to this any prefs you may have made inactive yourself. A REMOVED pref is particularly tricky as it is no longer referenced in the `user.js`.

 The solution is simple. Automate it, and reset **every single pref** in the user.js regardless of whether it is active or inactive. Then restart Firefox and all your ACTIVE prefs are reapplied. The end result being all your INACTIVE ones have been reset.

 <sup>1</sup> 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 (system addons, GMP etc). It depends on what you're resetting and how long before you restart.
