Firefox is well known for its flexibility when it comes to customization. Unfortunately, a good part of its customization options are difficult to find and use. This is where ConfigFox comes in. It gives you quick and easy access to a wide range of settings for Mozilla Firefox. You can enable and disable all sorts of features, including automatic checks, disk cache, scripts and many more.

ConfigFox works with all popular Windows versions and it doesn't need to be installed. It works straight out of the box, so you only need to extract its components and run its executable. The hardware requirements are insignificant and there is no need to install any prerequisite tools, apart from the Mozilla Firefox web browser, which should be an obvious requirement.

The software's user interface presents a wide range of Firefox features, which you wouldn't find at a first glance on the browser itself. The features are neatly categorized in a large tree structure. All you have to do is click the check boxes next to these features to enable or disable them. All features are well explained, so you will know exactly what you are about to enable or disable.

ConfigFox has a direct effect on Firefox's users.js file. Once your selection is complete, you only need to click a Save option, in the File menu, to apply your changes to this file. Of course, the software comes with a backup feature, so you can always restore the users.js file, with its original settings. What's more, the application comes with profiling capabilities, which allows you to save multiple features selections and switch between them on the fly. The possibility of defragmenting the browser's profile folder or vacuuming its SQLite databases are other features you can expect.

ConfigFox gives you full control over how Mozilla Firefox behaves on your computer.

Pros

The software gives you access to numerous Firefox features. You can enable and disable anything with a single click. The software provides support for profiling, profile defragmentation and SQLite database vacuuming.

Cons

There are no obvious drawbacks to mention.
