after uninstalling "No Squint" Firefox zoom is not saved

I uninstalled "No Squint" when I found it did not work as I wanted. Now Firefox (v.21) no longer remembers zoom levels of pages I visit after FF is closed and re-opened.

The "No Squint" uninstall asked if I wanted to restore FF zoom functionality - to which I answered YES.

After Uninstall I tried Windows RESTORE to return system to state prior to "No Squint" install, this did not help.

Tools>Options>Privacy>Clear History when Firefox closes>Settings>Site Preferences is NOT set, so as I understand it, Site Zoom level should be kept. I have tried setting and unsetting this to no effect.

被選擇的解決方法

Safe Mode made no difference.

In the end I got so fed up I restored all Mozilla Firefox directories from a 2 day old disk image backup (before No Squint was installed). Firefox ZOOM functionality returned, ZOOM level for specific sites now retained. This despite ALL Tools>Options being exactly the same.

Begs the question - what is the NO SQUINT add-on doing that seems irreversible even when it is removed??

Problem solved for now. I shall be more careful before I install add-ons in future. Thanks for your help Cor-el.

Correction. The ZOOM level for a site is not saved even within a browsing session. If I open a site, set the ZOOM level, close the site & re-open it immediately it has lost the ZOOM level.

In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":

  • do not clear the Site Preferences

Note that clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, and passwords.

You can rename the content-prefs.sqlite file to content-prefs.sqlite.old (or delete the file) in the Firefox profile folder to reset the page zoom for all websites.

Hi Cor-el.

I don't clear site preferences, and ZOOM is not remembered even within a browsing session. I have deleted the content-prefs.sqlite file, this made no difference.

From the links you gave me it appears there may be a hidden way of disabling FF site specific ZOOM, maybe this is what NO SQUINT has done?? This refers to a very old version of FF though, and there is no hint as to how to reverse it: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=419609

I don't want to install any more add-ons, I just want to restore the native FF21 site specific ZOOM functionality.

Thanks Petef

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in (permanent) Private Browsing mode.

  • Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
  • Deselect: [ ] "Always use private browsing mode"
more options

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
