My kids have added so many custom tool bars, that soon I won't be able to see my screen. I can't figure out how to uninstall them. please help! The instructions tell me to go to the firefox menu, select add ons, click on the specific one and click uninstall. Sounds easy enough, except in the firefox menu, I can add more, but it doesn't give me the option to uninstall the ones that are there.

hello, please run a full scan of your system with security tools like adwcleaner & the free version of malwarebytes.

afterwards reset firefox & also have a look into the windows control panel if you find any toolbars or unwanted software remaining.

if you don't want your kids to mess up the computer then it would be better to create a separate (limited) user account for them, so they can't install software that affects the whole system any more.
