With QMF V13.1.3.0, administrators can now preserve and switch between personalized QMF setups across different browsers. Before this release, launching QMF in any browser always fell back to the default preference, forcing admins to re-apply settings every time. The new Preferences selector fixes that—making your working state portable, recognizable, and only a click away.

What Changed (and Why It’s Big)

Previously: Preferences were effectively browser-agnostic—opening a new browser reverted to defaults. Power users who frequently switched between Chrome, Firefox, and Edge had to repeatedly reconfigure their environment.

Now in 13.1.3.0: There’s a dropdown to select a saved preference set; you can rename a preference from session ID to a human-friendly name; and your prior preferences state can be restored instantly.

Where to Find the Preferences

1. Open the View menu.

2. Click Preferences. 

Inside Preferences, under the General tab, you’ll see the Preference dropdown at the top.

Rename Preferences 

By default, preference entries can appear as session-like IDs.

Make them meaningful:

1) Click into the Preference name field

2) Type a friendly, recognizable name (e.g., CHROME)

3) Click the green tick to save the new name.

Save Your Changes

After you’ve selected or renamed your preference: Click Apply to confirm, then click OK to save and exit Preferences wizard.

Tip: If you only rename and navigate away without Apply + OK/Close, your changes might not persist

Key Advantages

• Consistency across browsers—restore your personal setup regardless of the browser you use.

• Time saved—skip repetitive configuration and get straight back to your previous preference state.

• Productivity for multi-role admins—keep separate, named preferences for different environments.

 • Clarity with named preferences—replace session-like IDs with readable names.

• Simple, intuitive control—a single dropdown and a confirm tick—no complex migration steps.

Quick Start:

Restore Your Previous Preference State in Seconds

• View → Preferences

• General tab → use the Preference dropdown to pick your saved set

• (Optional) Rename it to something recognizable and click the green tick

• Click Apply, then OK/Close

• Continue working with your restored configuration

Best Practices

• Use concise labels like CHROME, FIREFOX, EDGE, or role-based labels like Admin-Prod, Admin-Test.

• Keep separate preferences for different projects or environments to avoid crossover tweaks.

• After a tweak session, Apply + OK to ensure your state persists.

Wrap-Up

The new Preferences dropdown and renaming in QMF 13.1.3.0 transform how admins work—making configurations portable, identifiable, and instantly reusable. If you’ve ever lost time re-tuning your setup after switching browsers or machines, this change will feel like a superpower.
