I don't want other people who use this computer to be able to open up the firefox browser and see all of my saved favorites and saved passwords that sign in automatically. Is there a way to sign out of the browser?

Thank you

Firefox comes in two or more folders on all computers. They are;

Maintenance: (Programs Folder) <Windows Only> Firefox itself: (Programs Folder) And at least one folder in the profile of each user on the computer.

If you remove the Firefox folder, the user folders would not be affected.

Only someone with access to your user account on the computer can access your Firefox profile.
