Unhappy Firefox Chromedit

I just started to use Firefox and am having some problems. Can anyone tell me how to use Chromedit to modify my prefs? I have installed Chromedit and it opens OK. When I click on user.js, it says "// Currently you do not have a user.js file." My problems are related to getting the audio to work on some websites. I have Firefox 0.93, Winxp pro, and have already installed Java and Macromedia Flash.

What are you trying to modify with Chromedit? You can change config variables by going to about:config, I find it easier than editing user.js.

you might need to manually create a user.js for your respective profile(s)

%appdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\[your profile]\user.js

I'm not sure you'll find a tweak for audio playback, but I suggest you add this block for better control of allowed popups

Code:
// Make sure all pop-up windows are resizable: 
user_pref("dom.disable_window_open_feature.resizable", true);  

// Make sure all pop-up windows are minimizable: 
user_pref("dom.disable_window_open_feature.minimizable", true);  

// Always display the Navigation Toolbar URL in pop-up windows: 
user_pref("dom.disable_window_open_feature.location", true);

// Always display the menu in pop-up windows: 
user_pref("dom.disable_window_open_feature.menubar", true);  

// Always display the scrollbar in pop-up windows:
user_pref("dom.disable_window_open_feature.scrollbars", true);
