• How to stop Firefox from the start?

  Hey, I think that this problem is part of a bigger problem.

  I tried the suggestions in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/989230 to the letter and yet nothing can fix it.

  For those who won't click on the link or the copy - paste. The problem is the following:

  During startup, Firefox opens automatically on my home page. In this case recently ever since Windows Update 8.1 on July 15, 2014. Also, what happens during the update, is that my ultrabook which supposed to have instant feature now seems to be ultra slow at the start and extremely slow when stopping down.

  Some programs have been installed except the 8.1 patch update and only different before and after that the update which is now Firefox start instantly.

  Solutions I've tried:

  (1) task Manager > startup > want to uncheck just Firefox at startup but not Firefox is here

  (2) open CCleaner > start-up > no even Firefox on it

  (3) searched msconfig > startup > go to the Task Manager > repeat step 1

  (4) went on http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx on the link at the top to start windows > No. Firefox has detected that either, 4-5 entry yellow and 1 red
  4A) have no idea what these means, what I notice, is that yellow could not locate the file, and the Red just here does nothing I guess.

  Here are the four steps I tried without success and I'm very sure that Firefox autostart is originally my laptop started slower than my computer pentium 4 windows 95 I have to the corner of my room.

  Further suggestions other than what I tried would be welcome.

  The problem seemed if being arrested since my laptop got another BSOD.

  I guess that this laptop just needs a foot in the head at work again.

• How to stop Firefox 18 to restore the previous Session after a Crash

  Firefox 18.0.1 running on Windows 7

  When Firefox crashes, the next time it opens it tries to restore the previous session. I don't want Firefox to restore the previous session after a crash. How can I stop Firefox restore the previous session after an accident?

  Please note:
  1 - my homepage is set to 'white page '.
  2. I configured Firefox does NOT remember my browsing history, download history, form fields, and passwords.
  3 - even in Safe Mode (with all disabled add-ons), Firefox ALWAYS restores the previous session after a crash.

  Thanks a lot for your help. I hope that my vote immerses you in the category "TOP 9".

• How to stop firefox to shutoff valve of the desktop computer

  have not been able to stop the desktop computer, while in firefox there is no button on the keyboard

  Hi, I'm still not quite sure if I understand your question. However, the stop button is something that will always be handled by your operating system and is usually to be found within the user interface of your browser.

• How to stop Firefox from storing the CAC PIN?

  I'm working on the configuration of Firefox to use an ACC Player. In the process, it seems that Firefox saves my PIN. For example, to put in place the .dll file to get Firefox to see the player, I went to view certificates to verify that they were installed. Firefox (legitimately) asked me my PIN code and I entered.

  Then I went to a site requiring CAC, and while he asked me the certificate to be used (correct), he failed to ask me my PIN code and I logged into the site.

  I then closed tab and went to another site and even once, while he asked for the certificate, it did not PIN code.

  Then, I closed Firefox completely (and all other browsers) and rebooted, went to a site. It asking for the certificate but does not ask for the PIN.

  I installed IE Tab v2 because some sites have refused to recognize the card in the reader. After that, he finds the map and asked me for the certificate but not the PIN code.

  The only way to get Firefox to forget the PIN is to restart the computer, but as soon as you use your PIN, it is stored in Firefox.

  It is an extremely huge security breach. The whole point of a CAC is that it requires authentication in two steps. I need the card and the PIN. If someone has my card and they go to a machine that has not been restarted I used, so they can access websites requiring an ACC connection because Firefox has stored my PIN.

  How can I get Firefox to store not the PIN code? I should be asked each time.

  Further investigation reveals that the question leaves ACC in the reader. If you have activated the cert with the PIN and let the ACC in the drive and then go to another site, it asks to cert, but since you already have the PIN, it will not ask again.

  If you pull the ACC and again before you go on the site, it will ask the PIN code again.

• How to stop Firefox blocking Flash once and for all?

  I have the latest version of Adobe Flash and Firefox insists on constantly to block it.
  I tried the thermostat settings in advance however that they do not make the choice to stop it completely.

  I don't want to switch browsers, but the East is frustrating.
  Thank you for all the solutions.

  Adobe has released an update today to solve critical problems, he admitted were in the 18.0.0.203 version. You can get 18.0.0.209 on this page:

  https://www.Adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html

  No one can promise that this kind of block will never happen. If that happens, if you are not accustomed to using the "Request to activate" feature a plugin, here's what to expect:

  When you visit a site that wants to use the Flash, you should see a notification in the address bar icon and one of the following: a link in a black rectangle in the page or an information bar slides between the toolbar and in the page area.

  If you see a good reason to use Flash, and the site looks trustworthy, you can go ahead and click on the Lego-like icon in the address bar to allow Flash. You can trust the site for the time being or permanently.

  But some pages use Flash only for tracking or play ads, so if you do not see an immediate need for Flash, feel free to ignore the notification! It will just sit there in case you later want.

• How to stop Firefox remembering typed usernames

  Firefox remembered all the names of typical users. I find this very annoying. Badly typed usernames, personal user names are displayed to everyone.

• How to stop Firefox Sync synchronization Personas?

  Firefox Sync keeps syncing my characters between browsers, which is a bit frustrating because I prefer to keep separate personas on different computers. I can't find an option to turn it off. Does anyone know how to do this?

  Sorry ' end this pref is added by synchronization only when the Personas Plus extension is also installed.
  services. Sync.prefs.Sync.extensions.personas.Current

  I don't see a separate pref for Personas in a profile where Sync is the only extension is installed.

  My suggestion is for you to post this question during the synchronization of Firefox / armor support forum here - http://getsatisfaction.com/mozilla_labs/products/mozilla_labs_weave_sync - and hope to see developers computer Sync and can put on a list of 'tasks' for this project, especially since 'Sync' will probably be part of Firefox 4 , rather than be an extension as it is now.

  I see 26 prefs that probably can be used to disable specific preferences or settings for synchronization, and I think I can disable synchronization of stored Personas should be as important as any of the others the prefs.

• How to stop firefox to go to a URL more flat on when you type a URL and press ENTER.

  When you open a new tab and start typing a url to visit, if your mouse is positioned on the proposed results when you press on enter, instead of firefox, go to the url you typed, it goes to the url that the mouse was hovering above.

  Is there a way to disable this feature because it's annoying when you say, trying to access youtube or google, but then you goto a completely different page of your story because your mouse was hovering on a suggested result.

  Apparently, this is a regression in firefox 31 and there is already a bug on this behavior in the file (please do not post in bugs, but vote for the bug reports if you want to see fixed): bug #1043584
