There is an add on showing up called torrent handler. It can not be removed, there is no remove button, I tried to remove it manually and I resetted firefox. It still shows up in my add on list. How can I delete it? Thank you all for your help.

Extensions that do not have a "Remove" button are installed by other software and are not under control of the Firefox extension manager.

Such globally installed extensions are usually found via a registry scan or are installed in a location that Firefox scans for installed extensions.

Extensions installed that way need to be removed via the settings (preferences) in the program that added the extension to Firefox.

I don't use Windows, I have a mac, does that make any difference?

Furthermore I don't know which program installed the extension
