I just downloaded Firefox as my browser and decided I would prefer a different browser. My questions are -- How do I uninstall Firefox? Also, if I uninstall Firefox, will I still have the history, favorites, etc. from previous browsers?

If you go with clean uninstallation, it will remove everything from your system


Hello,

Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a Clean Uninstall. This means you remove Firefox program files and Firefox. Please follow these steps:

Note: You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.

  1. After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
  2. Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    • Windows:
      • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
      • C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    • Mac: Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    • Linux: If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see Install Firefox on Linux. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.

Please report back to see if this helped you!

Thank you.

You can uninstall Firefox and choose to remove personal data if you do not need to keep any data stored in the Firefox profile folder.
This will only remove your personal data in Firefox (all Firefox profile folders) and not data saved in other browser that have their own personal data storage.
