How do I get rid of that damned pocket! I get rid of it and it lasts for 2 days and it's back!
I already came here and got answers and got rid of pocket (for a few days) and now it's back. I can't get into the 3 dots icon, and I'm constnatly trying to just use my basic browser. But nothing is there and I have to keep searching, searching, searching. This is driving me crazy. If you guys could make up your mind and stop changing everything it would really help my sanity. I hate that damned pocket, and it's always there leering at me, ha ha you can't get me to leave! I will just go to a different browser, take my computer into the shop, if it's the only way to get my damned computer to work right. l Why did you have to change everything! You trying to drivei people crazy, or do you have spies working in your midst to sabatage? What is going on!

Try this : Please Refresh but do this 1st:
- https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/export-firefox-bookmarks-to-backup-or-transfer
- https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profiles
then
TEST....... If no issues then Extensions which need to be added back in 1 at a time and tested ..... Or it is your Profile : Make a new one and test ...:
If is your Profile :

Note: Any customization will revert back to default, you will also need to reinstall Extensions.
The same answer holds true from last time to disable Pocket.:
- To remove Pocket from the Address Bar:
- Right click on the Pocket Icon >> Click on Remove from Address Bar.
To remove Pocket entirely:
- Head on over to about:config by typing it in your URL bar.
- Ignore the warnings about warranty there is no warranty and promise to be careful.
- Using the search box on the page, search for: extensions.pocket.enabled -- double click it to set it to false.
