The same goes with the browser history that keeps on recording your each and every move you make on the internet. The spell check and history are indeed useful for many, but if you ask me, I am better off with it. I disabled spell check and history on my Firefox and if any one of you would like to implement the same, here’s how it’s done.
Disabling Firefox Spell Check
Click on Firefox button and open the browser settings by clicking on the Options button. In the Options window, navigate to the General settings section under the Advanced tab and remove the check against the option Check my spellings as I type. That’s all, right after you save your settings, you will no longer be warned about incorrect spellings on any text field on Firefox. If you want to enable the feature anytime in the future simply activate the settings again. That was how we can disable the inbuilt spell check. Let us now see how we can disable browser history to secure privacy.
Disabling Firefox History
You need to open Firefox Options to disable history as well. Open Privacy tab in Options window and select Never Remember History from the drop-down menu under the history section to disable the history feature completely. If you use custom settings from the menu, you will have the option to record history for a particular session which will be automatically deleted as soon as you close Firefox. It’s always better to go with the custom settings and keep the option of clearing history when Firefox closes active.
