You can only disable (Never Activate) plugins in Firefox in "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Plugins". Plugins are always installed by other software and are not under control of Firefox. In Firefox you an only disable such an extension. Such globally installed extensions are usually found via a registry scan or are installed in a location that Firefox scans for installed extensions.Įxtensions installed this way need to be removed via the settings (options/preferences) of the program that has added this extension or this program has to be uninstalled via "Control Panel > Programs".
