User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091102 Firefox/3.5.5 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091102 Firefox/3.5.5 I have done a bit of reading about this and have tried a number of things but to no avail. I have taken ownership of the Firefox folder (and files), I have granted me "full control", I have "run as administrator", but all preferences revert to original install. Examples - cannot attach my signature above reply (instead of recommended below), I cannot save history (default is never remember history). Otherwise, both softwares seem to work fine, plugins work, etc. I assume this is some read-only problem because I cannot unset read-only on my C drive no matter what I do. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.change preference 2.close software 3.reopen software, set to default Actual Results: default settings Expected Results: save preferences about:buildconfig Source Built from http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-1.9.1/rev/57f71400f4cf Build platform target i686-pc-mingw32 Build tools Compiler Version Compiler flags cl 14.00.50727.762 -TC -nologo -W3 -Gy -Fdgenerated.pdb -DNDEBUG -DTRIMMED -Zi -UDEBUG -DNDEBUG -GL -wd4624 -wd4952 -O1 cl 14.00.50727.762 -GR- -TP -nologo -Zc:wchar_t- -W3 -Gy -Fdgenerated.pdb -DNDEBUG -DTRIMMED -Zi -UDEBUG -DNDEBUG -GL -wd4624 -wd4952 -O1 Configure arguments --enable-application=browser --enable-update-channel=release --enable-update-packaging --enable-jemalloc --enable-official-branding --with-crashreporter-enable-percent=10
