Thread: How to copy ‘about:confront’ of Firefox in a text file?

Guys,I have a question regarding Firefox ‘about:config’. I haveupgraded my firefox to Mozilla firefox 4 on my Windows 7. And toalter the configuration I have includded many entries in the user.jsregister and also by apply choice GUI and the ‘about:config’. AndI require is I need to adjust similar settings for the similar surferin my other machine is there any way by which I can copy the‘about:config‘ tastes from “user set”, please assist.

Goodit’s a identical easy process, as we recognize that entire thecutom settings for the Mozilla firefox is held by the ‘prefs.js’.And we can start it from the directory in a notepad and we can see itand then you can simple just copy it and then start latest notepadregister and just paste there. And these matter you should do lateron shut down your Firefox, and then preserve it and you can now movethe similar file to the latest machine. And preseve it in thedirectory of Mozilla.

Wellmate I guess it will adds all the value, but if you require to beidentical cartain about it then after copy paste just start theregister and have a appear on it, then you will be simple get torecognize that entire files are added, I did the similar matter butby fault extension also got moved so if you don’t require to fewextensions that start that file and withdraw the lines for theextension and then again preserve that file, just try it will operatefor certain.

Yeahall prefs will be there in that file, Mozilla Firefox read thoseregisters in the next order. First firefox will understand the‘about:config’ and later on that it will read ‘pref.js’ andmatters will be included in ‘about;config’ and in the finish itwill read ‘user.js’ and then settings will be included to the‘about.config’. And due to this stepwise process ‘user.js’will overwrite entire the pref those were set up by ‘pref.js’. Soif you have altered in any pref in about:config or in pref.js youhave do to similar alters in user.js since it will be copied last.Here’s the file position “programfiles\firefox\greprefs\all.js”you can have appear and print it ifyou require.

I willcertain suggest this link to my friends and to my colleagues also, Irequired entire the extensions and config to move so I just copypasted the message in other file and then similar message entered inthe Firefox directory of other system. Thank you guys for assist meout.
