Cannot clean up configuration

MJCapper | Last updated: Nov 22, 2023 11:39PM UTC

Hi - I added the reshaper BApp, played around with it, and added a Rule for WebSockets containing an "unacceptable code point '–' (0x96)". Now on Loading the extension again (auto on startup or manually) I get an Error message that "JacksonYAMLParseException: special characters are not allowed". So now i want to remove that Rule again, but I cannot find the file it is saved in. I just want to delete it and try again. I tried looking through Reshapers source code and then Montoyas, but I couldn't find the the implementation for the Montoya's Preference interface, so any help is appreciated.

Hi. We'd recommend raising this as an issue on the author's repository so that they can look into this further - https://github.com/synfron/ReshaperForBurp/issues It is possible to manually delete persisted extension data, but the location this is stored in will depend on your OS. Could you tell me the OS that you are using?

Certainly, i am using Mac Sonoma. And yes I've asked there, too, because maybe the problematic data can be saved differently.

If you're on macOS, you should be able to find the settings persisted at ~/Library/Preferences/burp.extensions._reshaper.plist Deleting that file should reset your settings to default.
