Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:122.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/122.0

Steps to reproduce:

Enable a theme, start the sync, unfocus the window, reenter the window and done, the theme should switch back to what it was before your change (other theme or default)

Actual results:

What is described above

Expected results:

The newly installed theme should have stayed enabled.
(This can be fixed if you change the services.sync.prefs.sync.extensions.activeThemeID flag on a new installation right after enabling syncing). This should be made more clear to the user as nobody would understand that a theme is an extension.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Sync' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Component: Untriaged → Sync

Sorry you hit this, and yeah, it's all quite messy. We hope to work more on addons soon, but in the meantime we are tracking this in bug 1673624.
