Help! How do I get rid of firefox developer tools.

I am a computer dummy. Firefox is installed in our Windows 8 computer as our browser. Whenever we use it, a very annoying thing called Default Fire Fox Developer tools comes up at the bottom and takes up half our screen. Sometime it lets me hit esc. to close it but then it just pops back up. We use our computer for the net, e mail and social media alongside learning sites for our kids. How can I get rid of this thing? Please help me and explain it like I am 6 .

If it happens again then please make a screenshot and attach it to a reply to make sure that we understand correctly what is happening.

How can I get rid of firefox, and the download everytime i go to home page

Firfox Setup Stub 32.0 exe, automatically downloads itself every time I go to the my home page. Why? I don't use firefox, I like Chrome. I have downloaded FF before, just to try to get rid of the annoying download page

Have you set the Firefox download page as the home page in Chrome? It can happen by accident. You should be able to set it back to the default in the Chrome settings. Here's how to set the home page in Chrome: https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95314?hl=en
Btw, if you've stopped using Firefox a while ago, it has gotten much faster and more lightweight recently. You might want to give it another try.
Cheers!

How can I get rid of firefox

Installing version 4 has totally destoyed my enjoyment of using firefox, I hate it. I have tried reverting to an earlier version but even having deleted and cleaned my system using cc cleaner a new install retains the button etc positioning which appeared when I installed version 4. Is there anyway I can totally clean this from my system or will I have to start using chrome. Why on earth did mozilla ruin a perfectly good browser?

Thanks for that but to be honest I find version 4 intolerable, I've downloaded Lunascape and will stick to that until mozilla can get their act together; as I said previously, I really can't understand what possesed them to ruin an excellent browser; if it ain't broke don't fix it.

How do I get rid of Firefox as its awfully slow and has lost all my favourites which are not in the unsorted bookmarks file?

I was told by eBay to set up Mozilla Firefox as I had problems uploading scans on to listings. I now find I have lost all my favourites and there is nothing in the unsorted bookmarks, where you told me they would be. Also it has slowed down my computer considerably, and seems to want to have about ten goes every time you try to get into a website. So it seems totally useless to me, and I want to revert to Internet Explorer. Why is MF such a useless system and how do I delete it - I am very elderly busy computer operator with ;ittle knowledge of systems, what you call things and so on, so please keep it simple. Jeremy

From Bookmarks (at top left of page) select 'Show All Bookmarks'. This will open the bookmarks Library. Have a look around here to see if your bookmarks (favourites) are all there. If so, you can now export them for use in other browsers. Why not take the opportunity to tidy or restrucure them before export?
To export them select 'Import and Backup' then 'Export HTML'. Save the file to somewhere safe on your PC, My Documents perhaps.
I use an Uninstaller Program so I'm not too sure but I think you can uninstall Firefox > Start > All Programs > Mozilla Firefox - and there's possibly an uninstall option here. Failing this, go to the Program folder and find the 'uninstall' folder, double click 'helper.exe' and this will open the Firefox uninstaller.

FireFox won't run and won't get out of the way;how do I get rid of FireFox?

I have used FireFox for several years and have been happy with it. Recently it quit working and claims to have forwarded to Mozilla the hang-up but it still intervenes every time I try to use the internet and announces that it has blown up and needs to send crash report to Mozilla and over and over again. I liked FireFox but I want it to get the ___out of the way if it is not going to work. It will not get out of the way.

Well if you would like, I'd love to help you fix your Firefox so you can get back online with it again :)
Open up internet explorer, go to [http://www.getfirefox.com www.getfirefox.com]. Click the big "Download Now" button, then click "Run". Let Firefox download, and follow the steps to install it. After it is finished, restart your PC, and try firing Firefox up again. Does it work?
If it doesn't, try to start Firefox in Safe Mode. Basically, just hold down the Shift key while you click on the Firefox icon, and it should start in Safe Mode. If it does, choose to disable all add-ons (we will re-enable them later) and reset all preferences (make sure you don't delete your bookmarks or personal data).
Now you should be able to start Firefox normally. You can go to your add-ons, and reenable your extensions one by one until you find what is causing the crash, and keep that one disabled.
Let me know if you still are having problems.

McAfee have taken the decision to rewrite the Firefox SiteAdvisor plugin to make it easier to update. This should ensure that Mozilla's fast-release schedule does not cause lengthy delays after future version updates. What it means for Firefox now though is that until the rewrite is complete - and tested - SiteAdvisor is being prevented from loading in Firefox in order to avoid the possibility of software incompatibility.
The SA rewrite is projected to take a few weeks to complete and test; it should be ready by about the third week of July, although the exact date is not being given at this stage. It could be earlier.
In the meantime, users who are concerned about the safety of websites may wish to consider WOT as a temporary substitute. WOT ratings are set by user consensus rather than by automated site testing, so WOT is not a full replacement for SiteAdvisor. It is, however, a good rating tool in its own right (I use both it and SiteAdvisor in all my browsers) and is apparently unaffected by the upgrade to FF5.
There is a discussion about this on the McAfee forums [https://community.mcafee.com/thread/36733?tstart=0 HERE]

How do I get rid of Firefox 4 and go back to my last version?

I hate Firefox 4 and want to go back to the previous version.

To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles
What problems are you having with Firefox 4?

I have two firefox icons running horizontally at the bottom of my home page, how do I get rid of Firefox (2)?

Don't think I need two FireFox icons, especially the one that says FireFox (2)

I am guessing that this is just something pinned to the Windows launcher, and so someone more familiar with Windows may do better at answering it.
If you attach a screenshot it may help me understand what you are seeing
*[[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
Note however there is a problem with some Firefox installations on Windows,and that the registry could have been updated incorrectly so that you appear to have 2 copies of windows when only one is present. In such circumstances do NOT try uninstalling or you loose Firefox, and do NOT use any option to remove personal information,becaause that tries to destroy bookmarks, passwords and other settings from all normally installed versions of Firefox.

How do I get rid of firefox popups with comptitions and quizzes etc?

Doesn't matter whether I'm in my emails or browsing the net, when I click on an option, another page pops up and it says firefox in the left hand corner and is usually about a quiz or a competition or other irrelevant topics. I have to close this each time in order to return to the work I'm doing.

How do I get rid of Firefox Ads that are constantly popping up whenever I click to another website or in the same website?

The moment I open Firefox, a "Firefox" AD pops up. Anytime I navigate Facebook or it's apps a "Firefox" AD pops up! Anytime I go to any website, a "Firefox" AD pops up! They are genuine "Firefox" ADS, I've checked in your Troubleshoot guide! I can't do anything without these ads interrupting, slowing and stopping up my activity! I've also gone to the "Pop-Ups" page and made sure Firefox is not an "exception" to pop-ups!
Please remove them, it is harassment! I don't want anyone's ADS!

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
