Now every time you start Tor browser it has forgotten all your previous settings. I thought it was just some temporary regression but now it has been a while and it has started to bug me so I thought I would ask if it is going to fixed at some point?
I didn't read it closely, but I thought there was something in the 
changelog for TBB 8.0.5, that would allow users to save settings.
If it was supposed to be fixed, it's not working for me.  I still can't 
export settings.

I've played w/ copying the settings from NS Advanced tab - when "Debug" 
is checked under the Advanced tab.  Make the changes to NS you want, 
then select all in the window showing settings for the 3 levels.  Name 
it, date it - add enough info to file name so you'll know when it was 
taken, from which TBB version.  The NS settings look to be identical to 
NS in Firefox, if using the same settings.

The settings file "should" be able to export from *Firefox* & import 
into TBB, but that needs some testing.
