Why does adding a new computer RESET noscript settings?

[sb5k]

I think this is a known issue, but I cannot find it.
When I add a new computer, all the other computers have the NoScript settings reset and I have to manually enable on ALL my computers the sites that should not be blocked.
I would have no problem if all sites were blocked on the NEW computer, but the settings on all OTHER computers get reset, too

Are you using Firefox Sync? This is known to happen with Firefox Sync in some cases. Not sure if anyone ever solved it though

Yes, I am using Firefox Sync. All bookmarks, passwords, etc. get synced. But the NoScript settings are set to default and THEN synced to other computers, so I have a lot of fixing to do.
This has happened repeatedly.
Is there a way to tell NoScript NOT to sync? I don't have a problem with fixing the settings on the new computer, but fixing them on several other computers is a pain.

I don't think there is a NoScript setting for that. Some people were able to work around the issue by disabling syncing of all add-ons' data.

Thanks everyone. Is there a place to report this to NoScript?


I note this is even worse than I originally wrote. I can enable some sites in NoScript on one computer, but not on another that has that tab open when I restore open tabs. When I go back to the first computer after a reboot - the settings are gone again.
There are definitely some sync bugs there.

I've turned off syncing add-ons, and will see what happens.

This forum is the right place. Since Giorgio is the only NoScript developer, it's a matter of waiting for Giorgio to see this thread.
