Re: Tweaking for Fun/Speed - Fx v3 Series

If there is even one error in the user.js it will throw things off such as some .html code.

I use the extension Copy Plain Text to copy code online.

Hmmm. I renamed my new user.js to something else, restarted, and it still has all those user-set preferences in about:config. It seems to be picking them up from somewhere else. Now, I am even more confused.

Not a big deal just start over.

If you are using Windows make sure under Folder Options that

View - Hide Extensions for Known File Types is unchecked.

Now make the user.txt and copy the tweaks into it.

Rename as user.js and put user.js file you made in the Fx Profile folder.

Edit* If you have trouble locating the Profile folder look over here for info on it.

Remember that the user.js needs to be put in the Profile Folder only. Not in the chrome folder or any other folder located in the Profile Folder.

Problem solved - I had user.js in the wrong folder. Thanks!

No problem at all.
