Tor browser should be keeping your setting when you restart the browser for that Tails session only. Once you restart Tails all the settings revert.

If you don't get the setting to stay with a browser restart (not Tails restart) there is probably somethin/g corrupted in your Tails USB. Get a new USB, then boot from old USB and run persistence backup to save your data. Then restart the new USB and see if your setting remain on browser restart.

I have the same problem, the Security Level cannot be set without using the "Save and Restart" button (we had no button previously) and when the browser restarts, the Security Level is back to Standard. Save with the custom settings made in about:config.

There are some articles online criticizing this change, however, there are other articles about how not all settings in Security Level are applied without a browser restart.

So I'm not sure about all this. For the moment I use about:config to disable javascript and a few other things, but I don't feel too good about this.

Yes I need to use about:config for now to make it secure, pain in the ass. It actually works if you try it without unlocking the persistent storage I saw something about it carrying over an old prefs.js file

Made a new Tails USB disk with and without copying the persistent folder. When copying the persistent folder it doesn't save settings but with a blank install it works fine and creating a new persistent folder always works as it should. So it's obviously bringing over some old prefs file with the old persistent folder. It's been updated so many times so probably best for a new install anyways.

Luckily theres very little in my persistence folder other than a couple of text files to copy (easy enough) just need to figure how to copy the kleopatra data as that has a few pgp keys

Managed to transfer over the keys using terminal and a few commands

gpg --export -a > public_keys.asc. This exports all public keys in ASCII-armored format to a file named public_keys.asc.
Export secret keys:
Use the command gpg --export-secret-keys -a > secret_keys.asc.

Then on the new disk

Import public keys: Use the command gpg --import public_keys.asc.
Import secret keys: Use the command gpg --import secret_keys.asc.

All seems to be working now

Flash your drive again and don't use the persistent storage, instead use a separate encrypted drive.
