Hello friends,

Sometimes our internet data is very limited then we need to be very careful about what website to load but you can reduce your data usage by disabling images in browser. As we are mostly interested in information in a particular site and not the image included in it. Many ads on websites are images that increases data usage considerably. So lets see how to disable images in Firefox and Chrome.

Steps to disable images in Firefox Browser

Step 1:In the address bar type “about:config” without double quotes

Step 2:Go to or search for “permissions.default.image” and double click it.

By default its value would be 0.

You can check browsing history too.

You can set the default value to any of the following value:

0(zero)- Always load the images

1(one)- Never load the images

2(two)-Don’t load third images

For disabling the images, set the value to 1.
