I installed a Firefox Extension and need to customize a keyboard shortcut it uses. Apparently this needs to be done by modifying the Extension's manifest.json

From Mozilla:

Each keyboard shortcut is defined with a name, a combination of keys, and a description. Once you've defined commands in your extension's manifest.json, you can listen for their associated key combinations with the commands JavaScript API.

The problem is that I can't define anything because the .json is read-only in my browser window, and I don't know where (or if) it can be accessed outside of the browser through macOS Finder.

Here's a related question: How to access the manifest.json file of a Firefox extension? but it doesn't go into how to edit it.

Maybe I've missed something?

You can find your all extension from this location:

C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\[profile]\storage\default

also check here

C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Local........

and find the extension which you want to edit.

Check This Image I am showing of Chrome browser I don't have Mozilla.

Please confirm me if you will done through this.

  • Thank you. I'm using macOS, so the path is different, but I now that I know to look in the Profiles folder, I know to look in: `/Users/user/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/...` What's odd is that when I ran a search of my profile folder's contents I could only find one manifest.json file, and it wasn't the one I needed (the one belonging to the extension). I wonder why... – Mentalist Mar 02 '23 at 15:30
