About two weeks ago I loaded a add-on >

Open Link in New Tab :: Add-ons for Firefox https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/open-link-in-new-tab/?src=ss

Well I learned it as causing me issues So I removed it. Yet Today I was going through my "about:config" because of several issues and I saw part of that add-on still loaded.

So I went ahead reloaded so I could find what .XPI it was and removed it to see if it would fully remove it's self and it didn't

openlinkintab@piro.sakura.ne.jp.xpi

(Used split screen to show I removed it )

So what do I do to remove it fully ?

Hi, it is not unusual for add-ons to leave their settings behind in 'about:config.' When you have removed the add-on, you can remove any about:config entries by right clicking on them, then 'Reset.' After you have reset them all, you need to restart Firefox and they should be gone.
