This option was removed in Firefox 71 (see bug 1582023). Too many users were accidentally deleting their data from their device by mistake.

I used a computer from another person and l logged in and all my personal data was saved in the other person's computer I logged out and my information still in this computer. I do not want my information still there. How can I leave this computer in the same that I took it?

Note that it isn't recommended to connect to Sync on a computer that isn't your own. If you do this frequently then you can consider to use Firefox portable installed on a removable USB drive.

You will have to remove this data yourself and that may not be easy depending on what items you sync.
