Hi! When I bring up my Firefox browser it automatically shuts down and comes up again with two issues: 1. Do you want to restore pages? 2. A red striped URL with the little robot and the error message: browser is under remote control reason devtools

I've read all the postings and I don't understand many of what they are suggesting and those that I do, don't work. Please help p.s. I've already downloaded the newest version.

You can check in about:config whether these prefs have their default value (i.e. are not bold).

  • devtools.chrome.enabled => false
  • devtools.debugger.prompt-connection => true
  • devtools.debugger.remote-enabled => false

You can check if you have a user.js in the Firefox profile folder that sets these prefs each time you start Firefox.

You can delete the user.js file if you didn't create this file yourself.

You can use the button in "Help -> More Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page (Root directory).
