CoolCatBad Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 Some general and specific tips for the 1.5 Beta. First, it's a good idea to keep 2 Backup folders, a Plugins Backup in your Program Files directory into which you copy everything (except npnul32.dll) from your Firefox /Deer Park Plugins folder. The other backup folder should be in your Documents and Settings/Application Data directory into which you copy bookmarks.html/cookies.txt/signons.txt and anything else you consider worth saving from your Profile. Uninstall your Firefox/Deer Park then delete the Firefox/Deer park folder in Program Files, the Mozilla folders in Documents and Settings/Application Data and Documents and Settings/Local Settings/Application Data. Delete the Mozilla keys in HKCU/Software and HKLM (except the Mozilla Plugins key] Install the beta and reinstate all those files from the Backup folders. To use themes or extensions, they would need to be fairly new versions suitable for Deer Park, download them - open them with an archive manager and extract "install.rdf", open this file in Notepad and change the "em:maxversion" value to 1.5. Save and add back to the archive. Now install the extension/theme. Most Deer Park themes will work but the LiveBookmark icon in the Address Bar presents a problem. If you can live without it, add this to userChrome.css - #feed-button { display: none !important; } Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
