Best answer

1. Create an account in Firefox Quantum
2. Disconnect a device from Firefox Quantum sync

The new Firefox Quantum browser has a feature called Firefox Sync which gives us the ability to share Bookmarks , History, Add-ons and much more information on all devices where we use the Firefox browser..

This is useful when we perform critical work that must be updated in real time and for this purpose this function automatically updates any changes as soon as it is detected.

This requires having a Firefox account and for that purpose TechnoWikis will explain how to create and configure this synchronization in a practical way..


1. Create an account in Firefox Quantum

Step 1

To start this process we go to the following link where we will create our account and assign the respective password:
