Sometimes Firefox wants to be all nice and helpful but only gets to annoy you with some popups. This time the fox wants to reset your configuration to default values. You have three options in this case:

1. Ignore the hell out of it
2. Give in, follow up the request and reset that damn thing or
3. Read this guide to get rid of the stupid popup!

You have chosen option 3? Great! Now listen closely. Here are the instructions:

• Close Firefox. You don't need it right now.
• You want to open a terminal with Ctrl + Alt + T
• Type:

 cd ~/.mozilla/firefox/

• Press Enter to enter the directory.
• Now type:

 ls -la

• You should see the line with <RANDOM CHARS>. default as marked in the screenshot.

 cd <RANDOM CHARS>. default/

 rm .parentlock
