See:

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.

I would suggest following Cor-el's post. The risk is non-existent if follow directions.

Has your Firefox updated yet to Firefox ver 56.0.1 ? Help --> About

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

"I accept the risk!" is only for randomly making changes to prefs that you do not understand.

This is a pref to change a standard feature that doesn't have an equivalent in the user interface. E.g. Zoom -> Zoom Text Only => browser.zoom.full

Changing this pref is fairly safe since it only affects whether Firefox remembers the zoom for each tab or for a specific domain (i.e. across tabs).
