- Firefox popups in green box windows#
Pop-up windows, or pop-ups, are windows that appear automatically without your permission. 3.3 Is the pop-up shown after a mouse click or a key press?.3.2 Is the pop-up blocker on and enabled for this site?.On top of that, it's pretty clear that you didn't even bother to read my post, or you would've already known that I'm using Firefox Quantum. Okay, so you're unhelpful ''and'' being rude about it? Cool, cool. I'm appreciative that you want to help people, but being rude and uncommunicative while not actually attempting to find a solution is far, FAR from what you should be doing. Is your strategy just quantity over quality, answering as many questions as possible to keep your Top Contributor status? Given that just over seven percent of your answers are chosen as solutions, I feel like you're wasting a whole lot of yours and other peoples' time. You didn't read my question, you just read the title, and pasted an answer.Īdditionally, when I responded to let you know that your pasted answer wasn't helpful? YOU IGNORED THAT PART, ZEROED IN SOMETHING ELSE I SAID, AND PASTED THE SAME UNHELPFUL ANSWER. When someone says that they already searched through about:config and that they edit their userChrome.css, why would your advice to be to look in the normal Firefox preferences? It wouldn't be. and, oh yeah, that solution wasn't even a little helpful.

Copy/Pasting a solution is fine, but you could at least frame it in a way that makes sense. but the way you phrased it, starting with the word First, it seemed like you were giving step-by-step instructions. I didn't realize until reading this that you were describing two solutions for different versions I mean, looking at it now, is obviously meant to be a version number. Okay, so you're unhelpful and being rude about it? Cool, cool. Type about:preferences#general in the address bar.


Firefox popups in green box install#
When you open or restart Firefox and have updates downloaded, you'll be prompted to install them, so for the last fifteen years (or however long it's worked like that) I've waited to install updates until I have a chance to close Firefox.
Firefox popups in green box update#
What I meant was that I want to hide it, since it's super bright green and distracting on my screen.Īs for how I'm meant to update Firefox, the issue is that it wants me to restart the browser while I'm busy and restarting isn't an option. I'm not sure what a wait time on the badge is meant to do, since to my knowledge it doesn't do anything other than sit there so you know there's an update. Maybe turn off the popups, but keep the green icon so that it's still possible to update when you want to? If you have Firefox set to not install updates automatically, you would have to click "OK" on one of the notifications to install the update, but if you set the notifications to never display, there won't be any way to update Firefox. That being said, I'm not completely sure what doing this would accomplish. The numbers are in seconds, so something like "999999999" would mean a delay of around 30 years between when the update is downloaded and when the notification is displayed, which is probably enough time. Given that that's the case, I would expect that changing these both to a really large number would work. I believe there's actually two prefs: controls the popups, controls the green icon. I assume that how frequently the notification is displayed is controlled by the preference, but that's the only relevant entry I found in about:config I want to turn off notifications.Īlso, '''about:preferences#advanced''' doesn't appear to exist in Quantum? That just takes me to the general preferences page. I think you don't understand what I'm asking? I don't want to turn off updates. Type '''about:preferences#general''' in the address bar.Īlso turn off '''Use a background service to install updates''' Type '''about:preferences#advanced''' in the address bar.
