How do we undo the "dont ask me again" option after clicking that in the warning when a script (or Adobe flash, in my case) is taking too long?

A "chosen solution" to a previous similar question mentioned resetting the script_run_time options in about:config. But I do not believe that is the solution. In my case, these options are already set to their defaults, according to the "status" field. Moreover, those options control __when__ (how long) those warnings are displayed, not __if__ they should be displayed in the first place.

You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to restore the previous behavior.

  • Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
  • Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
  • Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)

Thanks. But I'm not sure if and how that solves my problem. Forgive if that's due to my lack of technical knowledge about how these things work.

As I understand it, the original problem was with an add-on, specifically the Adobe Flash plug-in. When a delay arose in the execution of a plug-in (right?), I got a warning to stop or continue the plug-in due to the max_script_run_time timeout.

I also had the option to disable future warnings ("dont ask me again"), which I selected inadvertently. My understanding is: that applies to all script_run_time timouts for all plug-ins executed by all web pages.

So what web page(s) would I reload to override the "dont ask me again" option?

I thought that state ("dont ask me again") might be stored in the Registry (WinXP). Alternatively, perhaps there is a cookie or something in the cache.

If the latter, I wonder if it would help if did Clear Recent History, either selecting Everything or something in particular (what?).

In any case, it seems unlikely that I will ever know for sure if and what remedies the problem, unless something authoritatively identifies and explains the solution. I don't believe I can predict when a script might time out. So I don't believe I can verify that the "dont ask" option is disabled, other than by coincidence.

Does all that sound about right? Or do I misunderstand?
