You might be the one to answer that question having had two years experience with the product and the software developers. In two years from now, someone is going to be new to Firefox and will have a question or a problem. Maybe I was lucky, but then again maybe NOT ! Of course I care very much about my computer´s general health and keep myself informed reading forums like this, so, it is more unlikely that something can go wrong.

I was a happy Firefox, Chrome, and Chromium user with Linux Mint Sarah 18. Latest version of Firefox, whatever that is. I suspect this may require working in terminal. I'm not sure if I'm still a newbie or maybe intermediate. Switched to Linux Mint a few years ago and love it. After that I can do a fresh install and be confident it's not compromised by a rogue addin.īackground Info and Details (The details - for those who want to know the minutia) Please tell me how to completely uninstall Firefox using command line, including I want to erase/delete all preferences and addins.
