Re: FF v66.3 Win dumped my Adblock and Ghostery
Puppy2012, the links given in that thread allowing downloading a later version of Firefox are now dead. They did work at one time but I suspect Mozilla pulled the plug on it.
Dr. Watson, to get a temporary fix see this Mozilla Blog page: Update Regarding Add-ons in Firefox
For a reasonable thread (there are quite a lot of them) on MozillaZine dealing with this see: "Missing something? Some extensions are no longer supported"

A simple temporary fix is to change xpinstall.signatures.required to false (restarting FF after this change is optional but recommended). Remember to change the setting back to true once Mozilla fix the problem.

Many thanks to you all for the info. Made the change as advised and got them back.
Made a note to revert when issue is resolved but what notification from MZ should I look out for to say fix
is done so I can revert temporary changes.
Ciao

upgrade to version 66.0.5, dr.watson. Mozilla had to release two updates in a row for Firefox 66 to completely fix the disabled addons problem due to expired mozilla certificatesdr.watson wrote:My FF 66.3 updated itself yesterday and disabled all my extensions
