Mozilla Firefox is a popular web browser and one of the most popular browsers in use today. It’s also one of the most customizable browsers, letting you add your own extensions and add-ons from the Mozilla Firefox Add-on Store. If you’re not sure how to uninstall or disable extensions in Mozilla Firefox, we’ve got you covered. In this article, we’ll show you how to uninstall or disable extensions in Mozilla Firefox using the following steps:

  1. Open Mozilla Firefox and click on the three lines in the top left corner of the window. This will open a menu with three lines: “Tools”, “Extensions”, and “Add-ons”.
  2. On the Tools line, click on “Uninstall Extensions”.
  3. On the Extensions line, click on “Disable Extensions”.

Extensions in Mozilla Firefox enable you to add all kinds of new features to the browser. But, if you’re not using an extension, removing it can help speed up your browser and protect your privacy. Here’s how to disable or remove an add-on from Firefox.

First, open “Firefox.” In any window, click the hamburger button (three horizontal lines) and select “Add-ons” from the menu.

An “Add-ons Manager” tab will open that lists all of your installed Extensions. If you’d like to disable an extension (which will leave the add-on installed but make it inactive), flip the switch beside it to turn it off.

Once disabled, the extension will move to a separate list of “Disabled” extensions below the “Enabled” list at the top of the page. If you need to enable it again later, just flip the switch beside it again to turn it on.

If you’d like to completely uninstall and remove an extension, click the ellipses button (three dots) beside the extension in the list and select “Remove.”

After selecting “Remove,” you’ll see a confirmation window pop-up asking if you really want to remove the extension. Click “Remove.”

After that, the extension will be uninstalled completely. If you ever need to use that particular extension again, you’ll need to reinstall it.

A Quick Way to Remove an Extension Using the Toolbar

If your Firefox extension has an icon in the toolbar, you can uninstall the extension quickly by right-clicking the icon and selecting “Remove Extension” from the menu that pops up.

After that, you’ll see a confirmation window appear. Click the “Remove” button, and the extension will be removed from Firefox completely. Happy browsing!
