Sidebar

A sidebar has appeared out of nowhere. I removed all extension on that sidebar and it still doesn't go away. I already have a bookmark bar and extensions at the top bar. I don't want another sidebar at every firefox window. How do I remove the sidebar, please.

I was able to find sidebar from "More Tools" -> "Customize toolbar" -> Look for sidebar (If you can't see it then its already at the toolbar somewhere.)

I was able to disable it from there.

Go to menu ≡ -> Settings -> Firefox Labs and turn off Sidebar.

WARNING from the moderator team: Changing Firefox preferences from the about:config page can sometimes break Firefox or cause strange behavior. You should only do this if you know what you're doing. Please read Firefox advanced customization and configuration options to learn more.

I had the same problem. To remove the sidebar completely, go to about:config, search for "sidebar.revamp", and set it to false (click on the "toggle" button).

Hi

If you select the cog wheel icon at the bottom of the sidebar launcher, you should see an option to "Show and hide sidebar". Selecting this will hide the sidebar.
