How to delete Kaspersky Protection ?
Good time of day. I really want to remove the Kaspersky Protection plugin. I didn’t put it myself and I don’t need it. But this is impossible, since there is no "delete" button in the plugin settings. How can I remove it?

If you can't disable this extension from within Kaspersky then you will have to contact Kaspersky for support.
Like I wrote in the other thread:
Extensions that do not have a "Remove" button are installed globally by other software and are not under control of the Firefox extension manager.
Globally installed extensions are usually found via a registry scan or are installed in a location that Firefox scans for installed extensions.
Extensions installed globally need to be removed via the settings (Options/Preferences) of the program that has added this extension or this program has to be uninstalled via "Control Panel -> Programs". In Firefox you can only disable such an extension.
You can find the install location of a specific extension in the extensions.json file in the profile folder. You can open the extensions.json file in the Scratchpad and search for this extension. The path field lists its install location.
You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
- Help -> Troubleshooting Information -> Profile Folder/Directory:
Windows: Open Folder; Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Profiles
