I have 2 PCs and I want to use different themes on them, a playful theme for my personal computer, a dark basic theme for my work computer. Which option do I have to deselect so Firefox Sync doesn't sync the 2 computer's themes?

Hello KevinWeir,

Would you try this please :

Type in the address bar about:config and press Enter (promise to be careful, if asked)

Type in the search bar :

services.sync.prefs.sync.lightweightThemes

and set those preferences to false

Then close and restart Firefox.

'Hope that does what you want .....
