I can't remember the email address I used to upload my addons, so I can't access the account

Add-ons addons.mozilla.org

I uploaded an extension sometime back, and somehow can’t login anymore. I’ve only got a few email addresses I ever use, and two of them aren’t recognized and the third is a separate account. This is the extension:

Is there any other way I can regain access? Or do I have to upload it under a new account?

Not sure how to prove I own this extension, so I’ll just post something on the github site that’s listed as the “support site” for the extension, here:

Does that mean they have no Firefox Account associated? AMO transitioned to Firefox Accounts quite a while back. If you however uploaded the extensions before that transition (that’d be pre-WebExtensions though iirc), you may need to create a Firefox account first.

I uploaded the extension last April, and then updated it in September, so it hasn’t been that long. Unless there was some transition after that, but I never saw an email about it. I really don’t know where else to turn, so I can access my extension again. :confused:

Hey @grantwinney, can you email amo-admins [at] mozilla [dot] org with this information and include the email addresses you think you used with your account? The admins might be able to help you out.

Nice. They were able to tell which email address was associated with my addons, and then I just had to create a new account using that address. Thanks again.
