How to undo "Allow and remember"?

A web site asked me to run a plugin and I chose to always run it by clicking on the "Allow and remember" option. Now whenever I visit the page Firefox crashes completely. I'll deal with the crash later, I only want it to not load the plugin anymore. That's because when I load it, I want to be able to reject it loading the plugin and then, instead of crashing, I get to see some information I need to know that may help me in configuring the plugin. This is an internal website. I'm on an Ubuntu-like OS. Firefox used to work perfectly before.

You can inspect and manage the permissions for all domains on the about:permissions page or for the domain in the currently selected tab via these steps:

  • Click the "Site Identity Button" (globe/padlock) on the location bar
  • Click "More Information" to open Page Info
  • Go to the Permissions tab
  • Tools > Page Info > Permissions

You can delete the permissions.sqlite file to reset all permissions.

I was able to do it by deleting the permissions.sqlite file. Thank you.
