@Broken-Glass1 You need to remove the //
at the beginning of the pref.
from betterfox.
Hello, I recently discovered Betterfox and took some time to delve into user.js and prefs.js.
The prefs.js file is automatically created and holds all custom settings from the previous session's end. Meanwhile, the user.js file, which is manually created, is read last during startup, after prefs.js. This means that any settings specified in user.js will override those in other preference files.
So, if you're only interested in using Fastfox.Js, simply rename the file to user.js.
I hope this helps!

I also renamed the Fastfox.js to user.js but it did not help

Thank you for your response. Could you please elaborate on what you mean by "it did not help"? I want to ensure I fully understand the issue you are facing.
Based on the steps you mentioned:
You opened both user.js and prefs.js files.
You compared the settings in user.js with those in prefs.js, and they were NOT identical?
However, if the settings in user.js and prefs.js are identical and you are still experiencing issues with Firefox, it would be helpful if you could clarify the following:
Are you encountering any specific problems or unexpected behaviour in Firefox after making the changes in user.js?
What were your expectations or desired outcomes from the changes made in user.js?
The point is that the settings in user.js will be copied over to prefs.js. You can afterward change the same settings in "About:config".
Thnx

You can not understand what I want to say. If copy and paste Fastfox.js into Root directory of about:profile the about:config settings contain inside the Fastfox.js does not get applied. For example :- there is a about:config value name ' gfx.webrender.all ' which is set to True in Fastfox.js but this setting remain false on firefox browser after paste the Fastfox.js to Root directory of profile.

I think you did meantion this in your original post.
-
you take a backup of your current settings. (When Firefox is closed, copy all files in the profiles folder to a different location).
-
copy Fastfox.js into the profile folder
-
rename the fastfox.js to user.js
-
now start Firefox again
this should in theory copy across to your prefs.js.
If this does not work, please go ahead and create a new file called user.js and paste the content of fastfox.js into the user.js file.
If this does not work, it could be some error I the file it self, see if the user.js from this site work for you?
Thanx

Yes the "//" is a text marker.

@Broken-Glass1 You need to remove the
//
at the beginning of the pref.
from 14 to 644 of Fastfox.js all line contains // . it is not possible to remove all // from 14 to 644
from betterfox.
@Broken-Glass1 Please read https://kb.mozillazine.org/User.js_file.
Prefs with //
are commented out, but you can remove them beside a pref to make it active. Itβs not advised to do it for all prefs. I have certain ones commented out for a reason.

I am a simple user. kindly setup the fastfox.js such a way, so that if I put fastfox.js into the root directory of profile like user.js it start working.

@Feejus if you're only interested in using Fastfox.Js, simply rename the file to user.js.
