How do I disable this function? In my browser settings I've disabled saving history and I set my browser to wipe all history on close. Also I've set my windows 10 settings not to store any history of latest opened files. No other programs don't show anythig like this.

If you want to remove the items from the list and stop Firefox from adding those items, you need to change the browser.taskbar.lists.frequent.enabled to false using the Configuration Editor for Firefox (about:config page).

If you want to stop Firefox from creating that list, do the following:

  1. Type about:config in the Firefox address bar to open the Configuration Editor for Firefox.
  2. Bypass the security warning (we'll be careful).
  3. Find the browser.taskbar.lists.frequent.enabled preference.
  4. Change the value to false.
  5. Restart Firefox.

This should stop Firefox from adding things to that list and it should hide the list.

As a side note, if you want to hide the "Tasks" section (which has the "open new tab", "open private window", etc), you can do the same steps above for the browser.taskbar.lists.tasks.enabled preference.

Hope this helps.
