Reset Extension Settings

Frnz | Last updated: Jan 15, 2020 11:18AM UTC

I have observed that extension settings are independent from project and user options. Is there a way to manually reset extension settings, either for a specific extension or in general? I already tried the following: - Resetting user options - Resetting project options - Reloading extension - Reinstalling extension Thanks a lot!

Hi Franz, Please could you let me know which extension you are trying to reset? Also, have you tried manually removing it (Extender > Extensions > Remove) instead of selecting Reinstall in the BApp Store?

For example, Param Miner. Yes, I have already tried to remove the extension manually, which unfortunately also did not work. It seems you have to overwrite the extension settings with the method: saveExtensionSetting(java.lang.String name, java.lang.String value) (see https://portswigger.net/burp/extender/api/burp/IBurpExtenderCallbacks.html)

Hi Franz, Just to clarify, when you say "reset extension settings", what are you trying to achieve?

I am trying to obtain the default settings for the extension in consideration. In other words, get it to the same state as when it was newly installed.
