>FireFox is not my main browser, it's dedicated to certain uses. A few weeks it summarily wiped everything when I opened it, with no warning whatsoever. I have an old browser and they don't like it. The FF forum moderators are assholes with bad attitudes, rude and insulting, pretty strange coming from Kumbaya open source floggers. They've been busy dumbing down their product for some years now, so I migrated to Pale Moon, which down the road also a bad attitude when add-ons became an issue, like they couldn't be bothered. These attitudes are strangely similar to here, you'd think they were trying to make sure people were out of the loop or something.

all true anon.
However, the team devving the code base for ff has since rolled out a fix!
Unfortunately for us control-obsessed, it requires temporarily setting your options to:
Allow Firefox to sent technical and interactiondata to Mozilla
Allow Firefox to install and run studies
(pic-related)
Gritted my teeth and enabled the sub option for an hour and all my add-ons are restored!
Immediately turned off the above option and
comfy again!
