Reset settings when the addon doesn't run properly? (Firefox Dev. edition) #135

Hi, I might have a curious problem, since it seems like the addon's settings storage could've been corrupted to the point where the addon icon doesn't open up anything:

(the thin line is the empty iframe/box that I get when clicking on the addon's toolbar icon)

and the preferences page only contains the tab names, w/o any actual options:

How can I go about resetting the addon's settings storage when using Firefox Developer Edition? I'm currently on 117.0b9, but this has been happening for the past 2 weeks, making me disable the addon thinking it's just been a temporary bug.

Check about:config and look for webextension sync. Do you have it disabled?

It was on/true. What can be my next steps after toggling it? Also searching for 'dearrow' in the same page there's one result - boolean property, set as true: "extensions.webextensions.ExtensionStorageIDB.migrated.deArrow@ajay.app" Searching for UUID that appears when opening Dearrow's preferences page ("90e09795-a84b-4934-a19c-ee3b5580cedc") does not bring any results.
