How do I restore the blocked pop-up sites after "Remove all sites?"
In pop-up blocker I chose "Remove all sites" and need to restore the block list
Chosen solution
Sorry, Firefox doesn't have a backup mechanism for allowed sites data. If you have a backup of your Profile, the file which contains that data can be replaced with the backed up version..

I am not worried about the allowed. Only the blocked. Do you know where it is in the profile? I can restore it from my working PC.
Thanks!
The purpose of the popup blocker is to block, not allow. If you checked that checkbox, you are blocking popups by default.
I found the file: permission.sqlite. Thanks!
That is right. I accidentally wiped out my block list and was able to restore the permissions.sqlite from the working PC. Thanks
Modified
You can try to restore a previous version of the permissions.sqlite database file that stores such exceptions
Right click: Properties > Previous Versions
Earlier I copied it from my old computer.
Thanks
