Evernote web clipper opens each time I open Firefox. How do I stop this?
I have a link to Firefox in my task bar. When I click on it to open Firefox, Firefox opens and so does webcvlipper. I don't want Evernote or web clipper to open automatically.

Is it Evernote the program, or Evernote the web page?
Web page.
Type about:preferences#general<enter> in the address bar.
There are two settings;
- When Firefox Starts
When the browser is started, what do you want to display? Many of us choose Show My Home Page.
- Home Page
When a new page is opened, what do you want to be displayed?
- Use Current Page. Use what ever page(s) are open at that time.
- Use Bookmark
- Restore To Default. about:home shows a Mozilla home page with tools.
You can use any of these that you wish;
about:home (Firefox default home page), about:newtab (shows the sites most visited), about:blank (a blank page),
or you can enter any webpage or about: page you want.
I have Google set up as my home page. When I launch Firefox, the Google page opens, but immediatley this link opens: https://evernote.com/webclipper/whats_new/?firstlaunch
Then it quickly changes to: https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/209125877
It is annoying!!
Did you check the instructions I posted above?
Yes, I re-set my home page to Google. So it will open Google and then immediately open the Evernote page. I then have to click on the Google tab to access Google, and close the Evernote page.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).
Is the problem still there?
