I have seen that too. I didn't find anything but will definitely be keeping an eye on this post.

I have never had Mull reset about:config. I just tried it multiple times and all my settings stayed the same.

good for you

not my case. maybe you're monolingual? maybe your local and language settings are the same? maybe your system and browser language is the same?

how does it help me to read that you don't have the same problem?

You asked a question and someone offered a suggestion you were not looking in the right place. Then you become incredulous at their suggestion and start asking a whole bunch of sarcastic questions implying relevancy.

How about you google you problem and figure it out? No one will help you with that attitude.

I have used Mull on multiple devices and have never encountered that issue. I do not believe that reverting about:config settings is a feature of Mull. Perhaps that itself is an issue with some setting, I do not know.
