How do I see the "Do you want to run this application" from this publisher dialog again for a JNLP

Question

I clicked on the checkbox shown .

Now I dialog is not shown again. However for testing purpose I need to reset this setting so that I can see the dialog again. How do I do that? I couldn't find where this setting is stored.

I am on Firefox 57.0.2

You can reset Java's security warnings. To do so you need to enter this in a command prompt (use cmd.exe or Terminal to get a prompt):

javaws -viewer

Then 2 dialog boxes pop up. You can dismiss the frontmost 'Java Cache Viewer' (see note on that below). The 'Java Control Panel' has 5 tabs at the top, where you click Security, and then Restore Security Prompts

[ General ][ Update ][ Java ][ Security ][ Advanced ]

Note: The Java Cache Viewer could be useful in testing. It allows you to remove a previously used JNLP app.
