I want to DISABLE the session restore

I just don't like my browser remembering where the trouble was, and heading straight back into it for a second dose. Seems fair enough, to me. Why can't we click to disable it?

Set the pref [http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes] to 0 on the about:config page to get the about:sessionrestore page immediately with the first restart after a crash has occurred or the Task Manager was used to close Firefox.

  • How can I disable the session restore feature after I have closed the broweser window myself?

    I don't want to disable ANY other feature at all (e.g. restoring session after a crash), I only want when I close Firefox and restart it to start new on my home page, without any restored tabs whatsoever. I have tried everything on about:config and it won't seem to do the trick.
    This is a big privacy concern and I'm really puzzled why Firefox was programmed this way without an easily accessible option to change it.

    hello kayjay76, this sounds like a problem caused by some sort of adware on your pc. please go to ''firefox > addons > extensions'' & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

  • I want to disable the encryption for my backups. Where do I find that?

    I want to disable the encryption in ITunes so I can work with restoring my new Iphone 5s and my new Ipad Air.
    Where do I find that?

    Hello RadioProf,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information, take a look at:
    iTunes: About iOS backups
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946
    iOS: Troubleshooting encrypted backups
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5162
    iTunes will continue making encrypted backups until you deselect the Encrypt backup checkbox in the iTunes Device Summary screen. You need the backup password to disable backup encryption or to restore from an encrypted backup.
    Have a nice day,

  • I have multiple devices that have my iCloud E-mail, I want to disable the E-Mail on some of the devices but keep it on others, I do not have physical access to the ones I want to disable but I do have access to the devices I want to keep receiving mc

    I have multiple devices that have my iCloud E-mail, I want to disable the E-Mail on some of the devices but keep it on others, I do not have physical access to the ones I want to disable but I do have access to the devices I want to keep receiving mail, can I do this with a simple password reset or will that still leave all devices enabled?

    The simple way would be to uncheck 'Mail' in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud, but as you would need access to the devices in question to do that you will have to change your password, at http://appleid.apple.com. You will then need to sign out and back on all the devices you want to be able to receive mail, and it's important that you follow this procedure and note the warning:
    Firstly, if you have 'Find My iPhone/iPad/iMac' enabled on any of your devices, turn it off.
    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID.
    Where it says 'Password & Security' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'.
    Enter your new password and click 'Save changes'.
    Now you will need to go to each of your devices and sign out in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud - 'Sign out' on a Mac, 'Delete this account' on an iOS device (this will not delete the account from the server).
    Then sign back in with your new ID. Your iCloud data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in.
    I re-iterate: before you start, turn off 'Find My Mac' (or whatever) or you will need the services of Support.
    The devices on which you have not changed the password will throw up continual error messages as they attempt to contact iCloud and fail.

  • [Solved] Xfce : Want to disable save session

    Hello everyone. New to Arch.
    Here's my problem. I want to disable save session feature of Xfce, but unable to do it. I also have tried,
    1. Settings manager > Session and startup - Unticking "Automatically save session on logout"
    2. Removing session cache.
    But no luck. Is there any other way to that? Thanks in advance.

    I Think I didn't describe my problem well in above post.
    I already disabled automatically save session on logout from Xfce settings manger. Because I don't want it. But in every time going to logout "Save session for future logins" ticked. I must to untick it always on logout dialog. Otherwise session will be saved. That's what I want to be disabled.
    EDIT : Never mind. Fixed it my own. Just logged in as root and removed session cache folder. [~/.cache/session]

  • Want to disable the pricing conditions in VA02

    Hi,
    When we create or change the Sales Order from VA01/VA02 with refrenced to contract always.
    It copies the pricing conditions from Contract.
    We are using PR00 pricing conditions.
    In Sales order it is Write mode. But we need to disable that, so no one will make changes in the PR00 conditions.
    I need to do this by Authorization. As soon as I give change Autho for SO document then any one can change PR00 also.
    Pls suggest.
    Points will be rewarded.
    Thanks

    Hi Kaleeswaran,
    Yes, it has disabled the conditions.
    But the same has been disabled in va42 and va22 also.
    I want to disable the same only for Order (VA02).
    Pls help.
    Thanks

  • I want to disable the iPhone was stolen by you

    I want to disable the iPhone was stolen by you

    Then you can not disable the phone. It can only be disabled if Find my iPhone is enabled, and to enable Find my iPhone requires an Apple ID which is how you log in to an icloud account at https://icloud.com.
    If you report the phone stolen to your carrier in some countries the carrier can block the IMEI, but only for that country.

  • I WANT TO DISABLE THE LOCK SCREEN CAMERA

    I WANT TO DISABLE THE LOCK SCREEN CAMERA

    I know I shall regret asking, but why does keeping the iPhone out of reach of your toddler imply it must also be out of reach of yourself?
    I suppose not comepletely out of reach for me, but not out in the open. I would have to put my phone either on top of a high shelf, which I would need to get on a stoll myself to get to, or in a closet or inside a cabinet. The truth is that I spend most of my time at home in the same room as my daughter, which is the layroom, and there aren't really any places there to put my phone out of reach. Putting it our of reach for her would mean missing phonecalls myself.
    This is beyond this topic of discussion, really and I'm sorry. My daughter had gotten used to the fact that if she did get a hold of my phone she couldn't do anythig with it. Now she's learned that she can take pictures if she gets a hold of the phone and it's a fight every time she "finds" my phone, because now she wants to be able to take pictures and it's tiring having to take it away from her, deal with the crying and screaming and also have to punish her for the offense. Again, this is getting way off topic.
    My opinion on the actual topic of this discussion is that this "feature" shouldn't have been imposed on me, I should've been given a way to disable this feature. It was, in my opinion, not well thought out by apple and I really think we should get a new update that allows us to disable it. (already told apple what I thought, thank you).

  • I have an Acer Aspire 7741. I want to disable the CAPS LOCK ICON. It interferes with my work.

    I have an Acer Aspire 7741.  I want to disable the CAPS LOCK ICON because it interferes with my work.  Microsoft states this is a  utility that is on the computer, not something that is controlled by Windows software.  Help, please.  This is the only computer I use that does this and it's quite annoying at times.

    it must already be installed on your system, normally it enables the Fn+F functions and over things like Caps lock. http://global-download.acer.com/GDFiles/Application/LaunchManager/LaunchManager_Dritek_4.0.5_W7x86W7x64_A.zip?acerid=634061190269930459&Step1=NOTEBOOK&Step2=ASPIRE&Step3=ASPIRE%207741&OS=ALL&LC=en&BC=ACER&SC=PA_6

  • How do I disable the bleeping RESTORE PREVIOUS SESSION box

    Every time I open Firefox, the RESTORE PREVIOUS SESSION box appears - even if there has been no crash. I've tried the about:config fix and it made absolutely no difference. Please tell me how to get rid of this feature without having to delete all my browsing history every time I turn off my computer.

    If you want to completley disable session restore about:config
    set browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo and browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo to 0
    Then Options > General > When Firefox Starts select home or blank tab.
    Set browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash to false to stop it restoring after a crash.

  • How do I disable the History | Restore Previous Sesssion option. It is a privacy issue.

    Hi I have upgraded to firefox 4.
    It seems that no matter how I shut down firefox or what security settings I use the options History | Restore Previous Session is always enabled when I restart firefox.
    This is the same big button that appears on the default firefox browser home page.
    Even if I shut down with only one tab open it still has the option available and that goes back to the single tab.
    Clearing history before shutting down firefox does not help.
    I found the web page where someone had actually requested this functionality but niether of the pricay settings he suggested to tweak this feature did anything when adjusted.
    These were:
    browser.sessionstore.privacy_level
    browser.sessionstore.privacy_level_deferred
    in about:config
    How do I get rid of this menu item/'feature' ?
    I tried turning on browser.showQuitWarning in about:config as suggested on another site and that givs me the 'do you want to save your session tabs' dialog when I shut firefox like it used to in firefox 3.x. So I was semi happy with this. However this did not stop the Restore previous Session being available even if I selected quit (no dont save tabs option) on the dialog.
    I do not want to be able to restore the previous session unless:
    a) firefox crashed
    or
    b) I expressly told it to save my session on shutdown.
    I also have the tools | options | general | when firefox starts set to 'show my home page'. So I dont think thats related.
    Cheers.
    Anyhelp appreciated.

    To Response: cor_el
    Thanks. Following that link I worked out how to clear the history automatically on shutdown.
    Having firefox auto clear my history ensures the 'Restore Presvious Session' is not available next time firefox starts.
    However, if I then want to force it to save my session on shut down I cant. I can get the 'Do you want to save your session' dialog, as in firefox 3.6x, by having about:config browser.showQuitWarning set to true. After restarting firfox however my tabs are not restored.

  • HT2506 I want to disable the sidebar in Preview from opening every time I open a PDF. How?

    I want to prevent "Preview" PDF viewer from opening the PDF's with sidebar. Trying to disable the sidebar, can't find anything that allows it to be disabled. I know how to disable the sidebar after the fact, but I find it annoying because it takes up space and is useless and I am constantly having to hide it. Can I just disable it from the preferences, that way when my PDF opens the sidebar is not there? Looked but couldn't find anything.

    I think that this is an issue with how the author of the PDF saves and collates the file. I wish in the preferences there was simply a "turn off sidebar," but I have yet to find it. 
    Yes.  I think so too.
    All my PDFs open in Preview without the sidebar.

  • I want to disable the DHCP server on HH3 and use l...

    Hi, i live in a flat with 5 other people so i have my HH3 connected to a linksys wrt5gl so that i can use the QoS capbilities of the linksys (tomato firmware). The linksys router can also limit bandwidth per ip address IF its also the DHCP server. When i disable the DHCP on the HH3 and enable it on the linksys the internet no longer works on any of the PC's, but if i have the DHCP on the hh3 i cannot limit bandwidth per ip on the linksys.
    In the flat before this i managed to set this up fine (wasnt with the HH3- some other router) just need some advice on how to disable DHCP on the HH3 and enable it on the linksys wrt5gl whilst still being able to connect to the net.
    Here is how its set up atm:
    Phone line>>>HH3 (assighns IP through DHCP)>>>Linksys (data goes through QoS)>>>PC's/laptops/consoles in flat
    Here is how i want it set up:
    Phone line>>>HH3 (Acts as a modem)>>>Linksys (assighns IP through DHCP to allow bandwidth limiting /data goes through QoS)>>>PC's/laptops/consoles in flat
    thanks in advance, sorry if this is hard to understand- im not so good at putting the problem into words
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi,
    Don't know to be honest......but as an idea....you will have to disable DHCP server on the hub, apply a static ip to the Linksys, 192.168.1.100. You'll then need to set up DHCP on the Linksys....start ip 192.168.1.64 end 192.168.1.253, you'll need to add a subnet 255.255.255.0, then the gateway.....192.168.1.254 that's the ip address of the HH and that could be the real problem as normally the default gateway for DHCP on routers is the routers ip address.
    So the chandes of it working are slim.....however you dont have to use your HH on your BT broadband you can use another make/model. 
    One option to use with that router is a Draytek 120 ADSL modem, which does PPOA to PPOE.

  • W520: want to disable the use of cd drive

    System: W7 (professional)
    I did not know what happened, but the cd drive keeps powering on and beeping. Whenever the cd drive powers on and beeps, the cursor freezes on the monitor for a few seconds, and I can do nothing for a few seconds. This really drives me crazy. Orginally, the cd drive is set to power off (with a little red circle and a line across the circle symbol), and everything goes fine.
    I would like to disable the use of cd drive, and do not want the freezing thing and beep to happen. Thank you very much.

    Hi,
    Do you have some application that tries to access the optical drive from time to time?  Maybe something recently installed or activated?
    It could be something really unexpected - like the windows slideshow gadget.  I had a similar issue with a HDD set to spin down.  Finally realized that the slideshow was accessing imaged on the HDD occasionally.
