The new Firefox brings a map of the world as it's default theme. I prefer the old one - Firefox himself! How do i restore the original default theme? Can anyone help? Cheers

If you prefer not to see snippets then you can set the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref to an empty string on the about:config page.

Delete the storage\moz-safe-about+home folder in the Firefox profile folder with Firefox closed to reset snippets stored in IndexedDB.

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

  • Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)

You can reset the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref via the right-click context menu to restore the snippets.
