How to remove/uninstall Lenovo ThinkVantage Password Manager from Mozilla Firefox

Well I have been looking for some solution but havent found any... Problem is if you uninstall the Client Security Solution (from your system), there still stays in Firefox the Password Manager and you can only disable it and it is grey and bothering (me at least). Because with every FireFox update it tells you, that the Password Manager is not supported, but you dont want it, soo here is the solution....

First locate this folder C:\Program Files\Lenovo\Client Security Solution\PWM Firefox Extension and just delete the whole folder and then its not anymore in your Firefox.

After that you should go into your registry - just press winkey and R and type "regedit" and you should locate a path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Mozilla\Firefox\Extensions where you should locate "{FCF36B88-1BBA-487f-B64B-D2E8980A9293}" and delete this one as well (so not only you deleted that CRAPPPP from your hard drive, but from registry as well). uff. What you dont do by urself, you dont have, I suppose...
