Hi all I am running Firefox Quantum 60.0 (64-bit) I am trying to verify the page/tab auto refresh/reload settings without much success..! The below support page is the kind of setting I'm after, but it is sadly for an older version of Firefox.. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/800493 Any ideas? Cheers

Chosen solution

In Firefox 56+ the "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page" setting can no longer be found in Options/Preferences.

You can modify this pref on the about:config page to enable or disable this feature

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.
