Note that the first two pref() lines in your mozilla.cfg file should be in your autoconfig.js file in defaults\pref folder.

//
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0);

autoconfig.js needs to use Unix line endings (LF instead of CR/LF). See also:

It looks like your files are probably saved as .txt files instead of the correct file extension. For example, since Microsoft Notepad says the file is called mozilla.cfg in the title bar, it's actually called mozilla.cfg.txt.

When you save a file with Microsoft Notepad, it will automatically save them as a .txt, even if you specify the extension, unless you save the file type as All files.

It's often hard to notice this, since Windows automatically hides the file extension unless you go to View in the Windows File Explorer and check File name extensions.

Remove the .txt file extensions and you should be fine.

Hope this helps.

You need this content in the autoconfig.js file that is placed in the "defaults\pref" directory where the channel-prefs.js file is located.

//
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0);
pref("general.config.sandbox_enabled", false);
  • autoconfig.cfg and autoconfig.js need to start with a comment line (//)
  • autoconfig.js needs to use Unix line endings (LF instead of CR/LF)
