At least i’m happy to know i’m not alone in this one. That thing scared the crap out of me. Couldn’t find information in any blog post or social media. Hanging tight with you guys for a solution.

it happened to me during the middle of a session
i legit got a chill down my spine when the notif showed up
i am actually frantic over this
I’m really fixing to stop using FF period. Add-ons not working, adblock not working, theme disabled. I tried to also go back to FF 65, but the dang thing kept auto-updating and I didn’t want it to do that. Frustrating. I’ve been using FF since I started with the computer back in 1995…Come on people, get your act together.

This is the first time in 5 years that I’ve seen an ad, I know none of my passwords, and reddit looks like crap. I need my addons!

ohmigod, I’m so glad to find these posts! I thought I was going insane. Sent a request to support and the suggested fix didn’t work. I was working away on FF 66.0.3 and suddenly my Acrobat and Norton(!!) add-ons just disappear! I tried to fix and keep getting the message that these add-ons are corrupted!! as others have said, I’m ripping my hair out!

GUYS PLEASE TRY THIS:
- install ESR, developer, or nightly edition
- open about:config
- change xpinstall.signatures.required to "false"
you can now re enable all extensions
The user soft bed posted this on Twitter, and now my extensions are working.

my version is the 67.0b16 (64-bit) of the Developer Edition
I just tried to turn the fix that Renannm posted and it didn’t work! I hope The Firefox team fix this soon
this seems to work for me, do I need to toggle it back on after I re enable my extensions
A temporary workaround:
- Navigate to
about:debugging - Click the ‘Load Temporary Add-on’ button
- Navigate to the .xpi file in your profile directory select it and click Open.
To find your profile directory and extensions:
- Windows:
C:\Users\{your username}\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\{profile id}.default\extensions - Linux:
~/.mozilla/firefox/{profile id}.default/extensions/ - MacOS:
~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/{profile id}.default/extensions
Or just download the extensions you want from https://addons.mozilla.org/:
- Right click on the ‘Add to Firefox’ button
- Choose ‘Save Link As’ from the menu
- Save the .xpi file somewhere handy
- Navigate to
about:debugging - Click the ‘Load Temporary Add-on’ button
- Navigate to the .xpi file you downloaded and open it
Restarting Firefox will remove any temporarily loaded extensions.
So what happened? They forgot to make a payment? Do we need to do fundraising???

I didn’t tried to enable it back yet. But i’m gonna keep like this until a official fix come from the devs. By the name of the field it only seems a matter of block for lack of privilege or something, not a big deal imo. Good to know it helped.
