Firefox 10 reverts back to default theme on computer restart

Tried doing a bit of searching via keywords. Was having issues finding anything relevant.

I just upgraded to firefox 10, and now (never had this issue before) I have to manually change the theme from default every time I restart the computer. It's an theme I downloaded from a previous version. I assume if it was incompatible then there theme wouldn't work at all.

Was wondering if there is a way to remove the default and substitute (current) one instead?

Hi majorityspoon,

It might be an issue with the pref.js file. It may be unable to save your preferences. You should look at the article How to fix preferences that won't save.

Hopefully this helps!

Thanks. Opened up the pref.js file in notepad. Did a search for theme. Did a comparison before and after restart. For some reason the term true would keep reverting back to false. So I saved the file with true and seems to work properly now.
