Can Firefox 16 be configured NOT to save JSON backups?
In Firefox v16, Windows 7, C-Users / %user%/AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/%myprofile%/ bookmarkbackups.... HOW can i configure Firefox to stop backing up JSON files ? (Note: i have installed the recommended sqlite editor add already in Firefox, but am a bit confused if that will accomplish the task? I have already clean uninstalled mozilla and reinstalled current.

hello mrichardson33, if you want to switch off the bookmark-backups, enter about:config into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named browser.bookmarks.max_backups. double-click and set that entry to the value 0 then no further backups will be created (i don't know if it will delete the currently present backup files though).
