I added a persona, I've disabled and removed that persona, it keeps coming back. Going into tools does not help, adding a new persona does not help. I'm ready to give up on firefox!

I added a persona, wanted a new one so disabled and removed the old one. I added a new persona, but the old one keeps coming back. Going into tools/add ons does no good because it is not even listed anymore but keeps coming back. I've shut down/restarted, I've searched for answers to this problem.

Go to Tools then Add-ons then click the "Extensions" button then select the Persona you want to delete then click Uninstall then restart Firefox.


thank you

Please mark "Solved" the answer that really solve the problem, to help others with a similar problem.

The data that specifies which persona to display is stored as a pref in the prefs.js file in the Firefox Profile Folder.

Did you try to rename or move the prefs.js file and a possible user.js file to see if that helps?

Are you using the Personas Plus extension, because in that case you need to check the settings in that extension.

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
