Addons 'Check for updates' not working

Post by siffemoz »

Addons 'Check for updates' has stopped working. I have three addons that released updates several days ago. When I click 'Check for updates', I see 'Updating add-ons' but then get 'No updates found'. They updated on my laptop OK.
FF v55.0.2-64/Win7 SP1 Pro.

More interesting info. I experience the same behavior on FF beta, Developer, and Waterfox, which is not using the same profile as FF :?

Which add-ons were they? Please give full names and version numbers so I or someone could verify the problem, and not go chasing after a similarly-named extension.

Well, they decided to update today. But for the record:
Classic Theme Restorer
Theme Font & Size Changer
Clean Uninstall

Is a few day delay to be expected sometimes? I don't remember this happening before.

I tried a profile that has an older Classic Theme Restorer version installed and the extension updated to Classic Theme Restorer 1.6.9.1 (current).
