 0) Create a [backup profile](https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/wiki/Backup).
 1) Download the user.js file [here](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/main/user.js) (Right click > `Save Link As…`).
 2) Review [Common Overrides](https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/wiki/Common-Overrides) and make any necessary changes.
   * See also [Optional Hardening](https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/wiki/Optional-Hardening) for other recommendations.
 3) Open Firefox. In the URL bar, type `about:profiles` and press **Enter**.
 4) For the profile you want to use (or use default), click **Open Folder** in the **Root Directory** section.
 5) Move the `user.js` file into the folder.
 *After restarting Firefox:*
 1) Get an **ad blocker** like [uBlock Origin](https://addons.mozilla.org/blog/ublock-origin-everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-ad-blocker/) with our [recommended filters](https://github.com/yokoffing/filterlists#guidelines).
 2) Enable **DNS-level protection** with [NextDNS](https://nextdns.io/?from=xujj63g5). <sup><i>Use the link and support this page!</i></sup>
    * Check out our configuration [guide](https://github.com/yokoffing/NextDNS-Config) for the best experience.
    * See how to [quickly enable](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/dns-over-https) **secure DNS** in Firefox.
