I need to completely start over fresh wiht Firefox and LibreWolf.
Apparently I am not capable of dealing with all of the security elements of Firefox and LibreWolf. I primarily use Linux Mint, but have a Windows PC, Apple iPhone and Apple iPad. the whole two-step process and passwords have gotten to be to much to deal with. I do not have an authenticator app and do not want to have one. I am frustrated to no end!!!
How do I completely remove Firefox and LibreWolf and completely start over fresh?
Thanks!
Jeff

Before wiping anything, make sure you can still access your important accounts and have your recovery codes handy. On Linux Mint, uninstalling Firefox and LibreWolf doesn't remove their profiles. Close both browsers and rename ~/.mozilla/firefox and ~/.librewolf to keep backups, then reinstall and start fresh. If LibreWolf was installed through Flatpak, its profile is in a different folder. Just remember that reinstalling won't disable two-step verification on the websites themselves.
