With FF version 24.8.1 and version 31.8.0 I have in the profiles directory a sub directory thumbnails. With these two versions I have thumbnails in this directory, but its taking space like hell (about 30k/picture). I don't want thumbnails, but can't find where to switch it off. In the about:config there are two lines about thumbnails. One has a setting with a long number, but that could be a date, the other has setting 3. Is there a way to stop producing automatic(?) thumbnails. There might be a change that some add-in does this, don't know. I looked everywhere. Does anyone of you have an answer on this subject?

In about:config, create these Boolean settings, (right click on page)
name: browser.pagethumbnails.capturing_disabled with value: true
name: pageThumbs.enabled with value: false

Thanks Dave, found the first myself, that seems to work. No new thumbnails are stored in the directory. This brings me to your second, is this one needed too?

The second one should finish turning off the thumbnails, whether needed or not, I don't know.
