Are you using the "Clear history when Firefox closes" feature to clear any personal data like the cookies when you close Firefox?

Using this feature to clear the cookies on exit will make Firefox create plugin-container processes to clear data stored by extensions.

Use one of these to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the Firefox title bar.

  • "3-bar" menu button > Exit (Power button)
  • Windows: File > Exit
  • Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox
  • Linux: File > Quit

You can check in the Windows Task Manager to see if there are Firefox or plugin-container processes left and how long it takes Firefox to close completely.
