I'm using Linux Mint cinnamon 22 and have the latest version of Firefox installed or updated from the app updates. Firefox was already installed and is my preferred browser. But i have the problem when i go to the settings page i see a message on top (picture attached with this post) that says "Your browser is manged by your organization".

Which is simply not true. This is my personal laptop and it belongs to me. I see an answer from Linux mint devs that they will take it up with Mozilla. But that was three years ago. Can this message be ignored or is it still the case? For peace of mind, how do i verify that something is not managing my device?

My firefox browser being hack multiple times, so I dident use it for multiples years... Now I just want to give it an other chance by removing everything that could create trouble. When I get over the setting windows I can read this: Information Your browser is being managed by your organisation.

I don't understand, this is my private computer. How to remove this organisation management???

One specific cache entry always contains a trojan virus everytime I run an anti virus check. I can't say where this cache comes from as it appears even if I don't open a single new website. I delete it but it appears everytime I use the Browser again, even multiple times during one session. It is always the same entry code. Is there a way to block a specific cache entry or at least to discern where it originates?

Last week I upgrade to Microsoft 365 and now my Firefox browser screen no longer has a side bar with all my favorites with the remainder of the screen filled with information for a favorite. In addition, I had access to search history which I would delete with regularity. Please help me to restore my previous features. Thank you. Anthony P. Randazzo, Jr.

Sidebar

Sidebar is a lousy feature. I don't use it, I don't want it and I can't get rid of it.

How can I remove the sidebar completely from my screen?

a website im using is trin to call an api with referer header and policy of "origin-when-cross-origin", but firefox overides it to "Same Origin Policy" with console msg: Referrer Policy: Less restricted policies, including ‘no-referrer-when-downgrade’, ‘origin-when-cross-origin’ and ‘unsafe-url’, will be ignored soon for the cross-site request

After a lot of search, i found that network.http.referer.disallowCrossSiteRelaxingDefault config setting should be set to false to allow any policy, but toggling between false or true has no affect. The request still fails with a cors error "Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at..."

Is there a way to make this work? Or a way to allow the request to have this referer policy.

How can I most easily determine whether malware has been installed on my PC and get rid of it effectively and easily?

How can I sense the presence of malware and how can I get rid of it? Ditto for spyware.

Firefox keeps displaying notifications of an infected system, including the presence of the ZEUS.2020 Trojan virus, but Windows Defender and my control panel say nothing is wrong.

How can I get rid of false messages if no viruses are present, and if they ARE present, most easily detect and rid the system of them?

02/24/2025 @3:22 pm CDT -- Hi; Firefox has recently been telling me [in the Settings screen] that "your browser is managed by your organization." This is on the 'General' page. THAT'S A PROBLEM, esp. on a STANDALONE PC. I didn't change any settings for that to happen.

Since I first saw this message in January, I've reinstalled Win 11 several times; wiped my drive b/c of a security compromise, changed a whole lot of PWs and other things. This is from 48+ yrs. of being a Tech Lady. But I couldn't find a solution to this - to remove this 'organizational' mgmt. of my box. How can this be removed and the browser again realize that I am one independent person?

Thank you.
