Upgrade to 27.1 (from 27.0.3) deleted my custom mozilla.cfg file

Unread post by __NM64__ » 2017-02-11, 01:10

When I ran the installer/updater to upgrade from 27.0.3 to 27.1, it ended up deleting my custom mozilla.cfg file (even though the rest of my Pale Moon profile seems fine).

Is this correct behavior and, if so, is there a way I can work around this?


For reference I'm running Linux Mint 18.1 Cinnamon 64bit.

...and the same thing just occurred again when updating to 27.1.2.

Am I missing something here?

There is no reason why mozilla.cfg would be deleted.
