Hello TIM,

You're probably referring to so-called 'snippets' - if you don't want to see those, just follow the instructions on this page :

The screenshot that you posted here :

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1279457

Shows that you're on the "General" panel instead of the "Home" panel.

This screenshot shows that you're still on the "General" panel ......

On the left side, right under "General", click on "Home" .

Then scroll down to "Snippets" and uncheck te box.

(and maybe read the "askvg" article again ?)

You clicked the Home button that opens (in your case) the New Tab
page ....

What you need to do (to disable "Snippets") :

Go to the 3-bar menu => Options, and then (like I mentioned before) click on "Home" (under "General") on the left side.

Would you please read what I have written before - I don't know how else to explain (sorry ... ).
