You can disable the tracking protection feature by going to Preferences > Privacy > Disable 'Use Tracking Protection in Private Windows' option.

Hope this helps! :)

If you do not want to use a specific Firefox feature then just don't use it.

What specific feature are you talking about?

Is that the tracking-protection feature in private browsing mode?
