App.update.nagTimer.restart

Background

A user can choose to tell the application to remind them later about how they need to restart for a downloaded update to take effect. This preference controls the amount of time before the application tells the user again about restarting.

Possible values and their effects

The number of seconds until the user is reminded again about restarting. (Default: 1800, or 30 minutes; in Firefox 3 and above, 86400, or 1 day)

Caveats

• app.update.enabled must be true and app.update.silent must be false for this preference to have an effect.
