An extension automatically installs every time i start firefox

An extension from local system automatically installs every time I start Firefox after PC restart. I tried to disable it, remove it, but again after restart, it appears there. My question is how to disable addition of extensions and plugins from local system and how to block an extension. Extension name is Apps Hat 0.93.32 by nero

Thanks @the-edmeister , but your answer not satisfies my question. I also asked about disabling addon installation from local system and block an extension forever in firefox

  • Is it possible to NOT have 'Restore Previous Session' option come up automatically every time you start Firefox?

    A large envelope pops up mid-screen every time I start Firefox, asking if I want to restore previous session. I don't want all users after me to have this option, but don't want to keep an empty history either. Can I deselect this option somewhere? Looked around, but found nothing.

    Unfortunately changing the options found under "Completely disable session restore" does not make any difference to this problem.

  • How can I make my computer sync every time I start firefox?

    I want to setup my computer sync automatically every time I start Firefox. Is there any way to do this?
    Thanks for any reply..

    That is the way Mac OS X 10.8 (aka Mountain Lion) works by default. Are you actually running that system? (See About This Mac in the Apple menu.) If so, make sure the check box in the shut down alert is checked:

  • How do I stop one extra tab from opening every time I start Firefox?

    Every time I open Firefox, my Yahoo homepage opens, but an additional page also opens which has a variety of website thumbnails and nothing else on that page.
    In my Options, I have ONLY www.yahoo.com selected as my homepage, so only ONE page should be opening every time I start Firefox.
    However, no matter what I do, this second page continues to open every time. It's very irritating, as half the time I've already begun to enter data into my homepage, then the second page pops up and switches to that and I'm typing on that page.
    Please advise.

    @jscher2000
    Thank you!! That fixed the problem. The only add-ons I have are for my anti-virus software WebRoot, but somehow I must have installed Speed Dial without realizing it.
    That fixed the problem. Greatly appreciated!!

  • Windows asks "Do you want the following program to make changes to this computer?" every time I start Firefox.

    Neither my shortcuts nor my firefox.exe have Run As Administrator checked. And yet I get this prompt every time I start Firefox on my new laptop with Windows 7 Professional 64-bit.

    unchecking "Run this program as an administrator" under the Compatibility tab in the properties of the program was my first guess....darn.
    Ok I understand that this is only happening in Firefox. If you start it in safe mode does this still happen? This will tell you if its an add on or a changed configuration:[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]

  • How do I fix: The Plugin Check comes up EVERY time I start Firefox, AND I've installed Adobe Acrobat over 3 times but it still shows up as outdated

    I crammed the info into the subject line, but to repeat...
    Every time I start Firefox, the Plugin Check runs. Every ... single ... time. Very annoying. How do I get this to stop?
    AND
    I installed Adobe Acrobat at least 3 times, but it still shows up as "outdated". Obviously, it only truly installed once, but I tried clicking the button in vain hope that that will fix it.
    But really, I simply don't want the Plugin Check to start every time.
    thx

    Alas, I already tried setting it to False (read it online somewhere) and it doesn't work. Perhaps if you could give guidance on why the Adobe install isn't completing, that would solve the plug-in check issue... Fingers crossed.

  • Every time I start Firefox, why do I get a Google sign-in tab?

    I’m using Firefox for Mac vets. 34.0.5, and I get that extra tab that opens every time I start Firefox in addition to the Home page I specified in Preferences. How do I stop that from happening?

    Type '''about:config'''<Enter> in the address bar.
    If a warning screen comes up, press the '''Be Careful''' button.
    This is where Firefox finds information it needs to run.
    At the top of the screen is a search bar. Type '''browser.newtab.url'''
    This tells Firefox what to show when a new tab is opened.
    If you want, right click and select '''Modify'''. You can change the setting to;
    '''about:home''' (Firefox default home page),
    '''about:newtab''' (shows the sites most visited),
    '''about:blank''' (a blank page),
    or you can enter any '''web page''' or '''about: page''' you want.
    The same instructions are used for the new window setting, listed as
    '''browser.startup.homepage'''.

  • Plugincheck opens in a tab every time I start Firefox.

    Lately, every time I start Firefox, I get two tabs: one with my homepage (which I expect), and the other tab is https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/. The plugincheck tab is in the foreground and quite annoying. Why did this start happening? How can I stop it?

    What is the value of the pref plugins.update.notifyUser on the <b>about:config</b> page?
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    You can use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a pref more easily.

  • In FF8, how can i get FF8 to keep my third party extensions and addons enabled, instead of having to manualy enable 25 extensions and addons every time i start FF8?

    New in FF8 is that 3rd party addons and extensions have to be manually enabled. But it is annoying to have to manually enable 25 extensions manually every time i restart FireFox 8. There are many addons that i consider important, like Adblock Plus, and would like these to be enabled automatically every time i open Firefox, instead of having to give it permission every time i open my browser.Please tell me if there is a way of keeping my addons and extensions enabled.

    Do a custom install and install each version in its own program folder to use multiple Firefox versions.

    Create a new profile exclusively for each Firefox version.<br />
    Create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch each Firefox version with its own profile.

  • Reader 9.3.3 installs every time I start up my PC

    I'm on Windows XP Professional, v 5.1.2600, Service Pack 2.
    A while back I tried downloading and installing Adobe Reader 9.3.3 as an update to the old Reader I had. It never installed properly -- constant error messages, and it somehow wiped out the old Reader, too. IT told me about the FoxIt pdf reader, which I installed on a temporary basis until IT could get over here to investigate the Adobe Reader problem. While FoxIt was installed, I noticed that Adobe Reader 9.3.3 would attempt to install itself every. single. time. I. started. the. PC. Unsuccessfully! IT eventually came over to uninstall FoxIt and they found a way to successfully install Reader 9.3.3, but this application STILL tries to install itself every time I start up.
    How do I get this to stop???? They tell me it has something to do with a script that's being called forth at startup ... ?????

    I found the following Adobe-related applications in the startup tab when I ran msconfig:
    Reader_sl.exe
    AdobeARM.exe
    Acrotray.exe
    Acrobat_sl.exe
    Unchecking their boxes did not solve the problem. Abobe Reader 9.3.3 still installs itself upon every startup, making startup last a full 6 minutes.
    Are there any other suggestions about how to fix this?
    P.S. When I look in Add/Remove Programs within the control panel, I see that I have Adobe Acrobat 9 (v. 9.0.0), Acrobat.com (v. 2.1.0.0), and something that labels itself Adobe Reader 9.3.2, but it is actually version 9.3.3.
