How can I delete an unwanted notice concerning a browser settings change which will not respond?

more options

The notice is a window that appears while I am in Google. The title is "Browser settings change" below, along with the yellow triangular [!] warning, is a choice: "Keep my current settings", or "I am aware of this change and approve it" Regardless of any choice, clicking on the [Yes] button has no effect. Neither will clicking the [X]

I don't know what this means or how to remove it.

To remove unwanted toolbars, first try here:

orange Firefox button or classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions category

Most should have both a Disable and a Remove button. If you find one that has a Disable button but not a Remove button, then likely it needs to be removed through the Windows Control Panel "Programs and Features".

I suggest disabling ALL nonessential extensions and restarting Firefox to see whether that knocks down the problem. You can re-enable some of your less critical extensions as you find the need.

Can you track it down?

After I disabled a couple of Norton extensions in Google, this window disappeared. Your suggestion worked. Many thanks.

Thanks for the update. It would be interesting to know what Norton was blocking (or warning about), but I don't know whether that information is available anywhere.
