Appears // in about:config as "locked". Some config items require lockPref to be set, such as app.update.enabled. // It will not work if it set with just pref. // "pref" : Sets the preference as if a user had set it, every time you start the browser. So users can make changes, // but they will be erased on restart. If you set a particular preference this way, // it shows up in about:config as "user set". // "defaultPref" : Defaulting : Is used to alter the default value, though users can set it normally and their changes will // be saved between sessions. If preferences are reset to default through the GUI or some other method, // this is what they will go back to. Appears in about:config as "default". // "clearPref" : Can be used to "blank" certain preferences. This can be useful e.g. to disable functions // that rely on comparing version numbers. // // ============================================================================================================================================ // Protection ................. : // ============================== // // Pref : Locking librewolf.cfg itself lockPref("general.config.filename", "librewolf.cfg"); // // ============================================================================================================================================ // Index librewolf.cfg .......... : // ============================== // // ----------------------------------------------------------------------- // Section : User settings // Bench Diff : +0 / 5000 // Section : Defaulting Settings // Bench Diff : +0 / 5000 // ------------------------------------------- // Section : Controversial // Bench Diff : +0 / 5000 // Section : Firefox Fingerprint // Bench Diff : +0 / 5000 // Section : Locale/Time // Bench Diff : +0 / 5000 // Section : Ghacks-user Selection // Bench Diff : +100 / 5000 // Section : Extensions Manager // Bench Diff : +0 / 5000 // Section : IJWY To Shut Up // Bench Diff : +0 / 5000 // Section : Microsoft Windows // Bench Diff : +0 / 5000 // Section : Firefox ESR60.x // Bench Diff : +0 / 5000 // ------------------------------------------- // Section : Security 1/3 // Bench Diff : +0 / 5000 // Section : Security 2/3 // Bench Diff : +0 / 5000 // Section : Security 3/3 (Cipher) // Bench Diff : +0 / 5000 // ------------------------------------------- // Section : Performance 1/5 // Bench Diff : +650 / 5000 // Section : Performance 2/5 // Bench Diff : -800 / 5000 // Section : Performance 3/5 // Bench Diff : -1720 / 5000 // Section : Performance 4/5 // Bench Diff : -200 / 5000 // Section : Performance 5/5 // Bench Diff : -50 / 5000 // ------------------------------------------- // Section : General Settings 1/3 // Bench Diff : +100 / 5000 // Section : General Settings 2/3 // Bench Diff : +0 / 5000 // Section : General Settings 3/3 // Bench Diff : -40 / 5000 // ------------------------------------------- // Section : Disabled - ON/OFF // Bench Diff : +0 / 5000 // Section : Disabled - Deprecated Active // Bench Diff : +0 / 5000 // Section : Disabled - Deprecated Inactive // Bench Diff : +0 / 5000 // ----------------------------------------------------------------------- // // ============================================================================================================================================ // Index local-settings.js .... : // ============================== // // ----------------------------------------------------------------------- // Section : General Settings // Bench Diff : ++ / 5000 // ----------------------------------------------------------------------- // // ============================================================================================================================================ // >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> // Section : User Settings // Bench Diff : +0/5000 // >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> // ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- // User Settings : Cookies settings // ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- // Pref : Accept Only 1st Party Cookies // http://kb.mozillazine.org/Network.cookie.cookieBehavior#1 // Blocking 3rd-party cookies breaks a number of payment gateways // CIS 2.5.1 lockPref("network.cookie.cookieBehavior", 1); // Pref : Cookies expire at the end of the session (when the browser closes) // http://kb.mozillazine.org/Network.cookie.lifetimePolicy#2 // 0=until they expire (default) // 2=until you close Firefox // 3=for n days lockPref("network.cookie.lifetimePolicy", 2); // Pref : Disable Cookie Exception Button // WARNING Bug !!!
