www always appears when I type about.config so it won't work
I have Firefox 23.0.1 I'm wanting to get into about.config
Everytime I type about.config and press ENTER, it gives me www.about.config and says it cannot find the webpage. I've looked all around and cannot find a solution.
I am running Windows 8.1 preview

about.config is not correct. You need a colon, not period.
about:config

about:config
Note that about: is a protocol to access built-in pages.
Wound up having to refresh my Windows 8 because it wouldn't let me into Microsoft's store. Now, I no longer have Win 8.1 Preview. About:Config seems to be working right now.
Thanks for the help anyway!
