When selecting the "Always Activate Plugins on this page", what does one do if they have selected "Never Run...." by accident? Or would like to clear the list of Plugin settings per site?

You can inspect and manage the permissions for all domains including the plugin permissions on the about:permissions page or for the domain in the currently selected tab by clicking the "Site Identity Button" (globe/padlock) on the location bar and "More Information" to open "Page Info" and go to the Permissions tab.

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

hello tuck3r53, right-click on the site where this happened, select view page info and go to the permissions tab. there you'll be able to see & change the site-specific permission for plugins.

please also update firefox to the latest version, since you are using an outdated version affected by quite a few known security vulnerabilities ...
