Lightweight Themes not working on Private Window

Unread post by IceKirby » 2018-07-17, 04:04

Tested with 28.0.0b3 both with default theme and DarkPitch. If you set a lightweight theme/persona and then open a new private window, that window will not load the lightweight theme. You can't even set it after opening the private window.

Doesn't seem to be some addon's issue since I tried both in my main installation and in a brand new portable install.

I was going to say this has always been how it worked in Firefox, but I just tested with the various Firefoxes I have installed on my laptop, and it seems this changed somewhere between 45 and 56.

Heh, surprised they actually changed that.. after how many years?
Anyway, it's an easy fix, just have to find where I changed it before and un-regress it.
