Does anyone know an easy way to reset all my site info? I tried deleting it in the debug window but it just returns. The website suggests modifying prefs.js but I think that was an older feature of firefox as I can't find it anywhere. I'm stuck with NoScript no longer working because all of my allowed sites have been set to 'script only'
Removing the plugin and reinstalling doesn't help either unfortunately.
Thanks!

Do not follow this advice! See the next post.
According to the NoScript 5 FAQ

The FAQ partially doesn't apply to NoScript 10. For instance, there are no commands to export or import the whitelist yet. Difficulty level is easy to intermediate, but I can suggest trying the following:
If you do this, I would appreciate it if you let us know whether it worked.

If you are on NoScript 5, then read the FAQ.Your NoScript configuration, including permissions (whitelist/blacklist) and other settings, is stored together with all your Firefox preferences, inside your browser profile folder (prefs.js file).
The FAQ partially doesn't apply to NoScript 10. For instance, there are no commands to export or import the whitelist yet. Difficulty level is easy to intermediate, but I can suggest trying the following:
- Close Firefox (open these instructions in another browser).
- Backup your profile in case things don't work.
- Open your browser profile folder in your favorite file manager.
- Find prefs.js (root folder of profile).
- Make a copy of prefs.js. You can leave the copy in the profile folder.
- Open prefs.js in a text editor. If you use Windows and don't usually use text editors, Notepad should do.
- Do a search (usually Ctl+F) for the string "capability.policy.maonoscript.sites".
- Delete the long list of domains listed after this. Be sure to leave at least the quotes (see below). This will really remove all URLs, including things like "moz-extension:".
- Save the file and close the text editor.
- Start Firefox and check out the new status of NoScript.
Code: Select all
user_pref("capability.policy.maonoscript.sites", "");

It's 'storage-sync.sqlite' you want to delete to reset NS10.

Hmm, well that's certainly more efficient that my effort.
