```
// Mozilla User Preferences
// DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE.
//
// If you make changes to this file while the application is running,
// the changes will be overwritten when the application exits.
//
// To change a preference value, you can either:
// - modify it via the UI (e.g. via about:config in the browser); or
// - set it within a user.js file in your profile.
```
