Hi there! I love this addon, it works great and I have no complaints. Unfortunately my Windows OS won't boot anymore but I can still access the drive from another installation. I miss my old whitelist and never exported it. I was wondering if I can still get it from my old installation. I tried copying the {7...} folder from my old appdata\roaming\...\firefox\extensions\{7...} folder over to my new installation and replacing it, but i don't think it worked. Any tips for me? Thanks !

Find the file named prefs.js in the old Firefox profile. The line beginning with "user_pref("capability.policy.maonoscript.sites" contains the whitelist.
Replace this line (if it exists) in your new Firefox profiles pref.js. Be sure to close Firefox with File > Exit before editing the prefs.js file. (And be sure to make a backup of the file before you edit it, just in case something gets messed up and you need to recover.)
