Chosen solution

It's possible that your permission to allow sites to show notifications is too permissive, i.e., rather than Firefox asking if you want to allow notifications, it is already allowed. You can go to the Settings page to check:

Settings > Privacy & Security panel > scroll down to Permissions

to the right of Notifications, there is a Settings button. That opens a list of sites with Allow or Block permission, and there is a checkbox at the bottom to ignore site requests to send notifications if you are bothered by requests (there may be an extra icon in the address bar you can use to grant permission in that case).

If you clean up the list here, can you get rid of the unwanted notifications?


It's also possible that this problem is linked to a rogue extension. You can view, disable, and often remove unwanted or unknown extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:

  • click the Extensions button (puzzle piece) on the toolbar > Manage Extensions
  • Ctrl+Shift+a (Mac: Command+Shift+a)
  • "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
  • type or paste about:addons in the address bar and press Enter/Return

In the left column of the Add-ons page, click Extensions. On the right side, find the "Manage Your Extensions" heading.

If there is at least one extension before the next heading -- "Recommended Extensions" -- please continue:

Then cast a critical eye over the list below that heading. Any extensions Firefox installs for built-in features are hidden from this page, so everything listed here is your choice (and your responsibility) to manage. Anything suspicious or that you just do not remember installing or why? If in doubt, disable (or remove). For your privacy and security, don't let mystery programs linger here.

Any improvement?

Note: Sometimes extensions can frustrate access to this page. In that case, first restart Firefox in its Troubleshot Mode and then try again. See: Use Troubleshoot Mode in Firefox -- Open, not Refresh.
