[RESOLVED] NoScript status bar bug?

[Guest]

After NoScript was updated to 1.9.7 I've had a problem with the status bar changing locations. It will occasionally load at the top of the window instead of the bottom and the only way to fix it(afaik) is to restart my computer completely(restarting Firefox alone won't do it). Is there a setting I'm overlooking or is this an actual bug that I can't do anything about?

First report I've seen of that. Update to the most recent development build http://noscript.net/getit#devel. Then try these steps, in order, until NoScript is working right again

1) The NoScript settings became messed up somehow. Reset the NoScript Options by pressing Reset at the bottom of the Options dialog. Export your whitelist before doing that if you've added any trusted or untrusted sites you'd like to restore after NoScript is working again.

2) The extensions database is corrupted. Exit Firefox, delete the files mentioned here in this linked article, restart Firefox. Uncorrupted versions of the files will be automatically regenerated. Corrupt_extension_files

3) There might be an extension conflict. Use the Add-ons manager to temporarily disable any other Firefox extensions you have installed, except for NoScript.

4) Perform a Standard Diagnostic. If NoScript isn't working by the time you get to the "Create a new profile" step, a new profile with no other extensions besides NoScript should work right.

Hope this helps. Please let us know whether it does.

Thanks so much the reply. Step 2 seems to have resolved the issue which is great because it was driving me insane .

It would certainly drive me crazy too. Thank you for letting me know what seemed to fix it.
