Deleting unauthorized 2nd account

During my absence, my house maid created a Firefox "default" account with her photo. So, when I open Firefox it is her account and photo that appears first and it stays there until I switch to my account. How can I delete this unauthorized account without deleting also my own account and lose my password list?

Hi Vasilis, what steps are you taking the fix the issue when you start Firefox? For example:

  • sign out of the other person's Firefox Account, then sign in to your Firefox Account
  • sign out of the other person's web account on the page that loads (for example, Gmail, Outlook, etc.), and then sign in to your account
  • use the about:profiles page to launch Firefox using your older Firefox profile data and then closing out of the unwanted profile
  • something else
