Hello friends,

As the title of the subject entails, I am trying to disable Firefox's new translation tool, becasue I'm using a 3rd party extension.

I tried to follow the solution on the following support thread ( [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../1434741#question-reply] ), but it didn't work for me, and I'm still seeing the new translate button.

Is there another way to fix this?

I'm using Firefox 129.0.1 (64bit) for MacOS.

Looks like I find the issue.

The other thread I mentioned in the OP listed the command to change as: ' browser.translations.enabled => false ', but it seems that's a wrong command.

The correct command is how @cor-el wrote it (without the ' d ' at the end of the word ' enabled ' ): ' browser.translations.enable => false '

Once I changed this command and restarted the browser, the translation button stopped appearing.

Many thanks for your assistance @cor-el and @TyDraniu 🙏🙏

Did you disable the main translations pref?

The translation feature is controlled by this master pref.

  • browser.translations.enable => true or false

Opening the translation pop-up panel is controlled by this pref.

  • browser.translations.automaticallyPopup => true or false

The feature to translate selected txt is controlled by this pref.

  • browser.translations.select.enable => true or false

You can open about:config via the location/address bar. On the warning page, click "Accept the Risk and Continue" to open about:config.

Hi @cor-el and thank you for your reply.

Yes, I tried to disable the main translation pref by changing it from true to false, but the new translation button is still showing for non English websites.
