FF57 - NoScript broken in "Private Window"

Post by SomeGuy20171127 »

Hey Team,
I scrolled through the recent FF57 related threads and I don't see this issue anywhere yet...

After opening a Private Window in FF57, the NoScript icon is still available but clicking on it does not bring up the popup UI. I am unable to block/unblock any scripts.

Setting FF Options > Privacy and Security > "Always use private browsing mode" allows me to bring up the popup UI.

The issue appears to be specific to FF57 "purple mask" windows only.

Thanks!

Same here… in the private window the NS button is not working at all.
Using FF57.0 on LMDE Mate, one standard FF window plus one private FF window (the purple mask one).

Plus, in the standard window the NS button just lists the permissions for the current site, no other preferences, and in a quite confusing style (IMHO).
I have not yet found NS's preferences menu at all — where has it gone? Even via the Add-on-Menu I only see the permissions list for all the sites, nothing else. I would very much like to get the old menus back.

*Always* check the changelogs BEFORE updating that important software!
