Web Clipper Update Resets Settings and Attempts to Change are Ignored

Idea

Hi,

The Web Clipper on Firefox was updated, and Firefox on my computer applied the update recently--Version: 6.12.1.1 (48bcd17/1.1.0.926).

Tonight, when I clipped some content, I discovered that the web clipper settings had changed. In particular, both

were turned on. I've always kept them off because otherwise, they hinder my work.

I turned both off and saved my settings. However, even with the settings off, every time I clip content from the web, the clipper shows me related content.

1. How do I make this stop?

2. In future, can you please stop resetting the settings?

I don't know if it's relevant, but the MozLog shows many instances of this warning:

...thanks!

Hi.  I seem to have the same update and the same ticks,  though mine weren't necessarily deselected before the update.  I don't pay much attention to the completion dialogues as long as the clip actually works.  No experience with this,  but for starters I'd suggest that you

  1. untick the boxes again and exit / restart Firefox - see if the restart 'saves' the change.  If not
  2. deactivate and uninstall the add-in,  restart Firefox again and reinstall

If neither of those works,  any fix requires some 'proper' tech help (mostly user advice here...mostly) so I'd suggest you reach out to Support directly if you're a paying customer on https://help.evernote.com/hc/requests/new or tweet them if not via https://twitter.com/evernotehelps
