Hi, thanks for your support. I have created a new profile without any addons/extensions. This works so far....BUT...I get this on the commandline while starting FF as normal user: (firefox:2626): dconf-WARNING **: Unable to open /root/.local/share/dconf/profile/user: Permission denied *** UTM:SVC TimerManager:registerTimer called after profile-before-change notification. Ignoring timer registration for id: telemetry_modules_ping What the .... is FF trying to do with my root-Account ? I am irritated... mcc
