    How to Stop Edge Popups in Firefox


    Past few days when I'm using Firefox I keep getting these popup messages at the top of the screen asking me to switch to Edge. Basically, these are nothing more than annoying ads to move you to Edge. I like Firefox and use it on my Apple iMac as well as my Dell Windows 10 laptop. I'm not a fan of Edge, so how do I stop this?

    This is what I want to STOP!!!

    You'll keep getting them if you go to MS sites.

    Interesting, I just went to microsoft.com and did not get the ad. Either it's specific to msn.com - that's a website I do not intend visiting - or you have to double-check you privacy and security settings (including those in uBlock).
