Firefox ask me to install add ons evertime the opening... I disabled all of the updates.

now I use the latest version of Firefox (10.0). AprΦs the dΘmarrage, I open the Firefox browser. He always asks me to install the Add-ons that is already, I added to the browser.

Ex:

I installed the firebug add-on. When I open a browser he asks me to install firebug again. After installing the browser must be restarted to activate firebug

   So please reply me for this problem

My guess:

You get a prompt to confirm what modules you have installed. There used to be a problem with other programs to install add-ons without your permission, and so many people knew they had these add-ons installed. Sometimes, these modules caused Firefox slow or unstable. However, there are some cases where people are aware of these modules being installed by third parties and they really want.

So in a Firefox update has a few months ago, a single confirmation prompt was added to ensure that you are aware of all add-ons that are already installed and allow you to select those that you want to keep.

Here is a blog about the feature: http://blog.mozilla.com/addons/2011/08/11/strengthening-user-control-of-add-ons/

    Installed Firefox without add-on to display and 11. Tried to install Autofill Forms and I get the message "there was an error to install AutoFill Forms. Try Again"even for any other add-on.

Do not have this problem with Internet Explorer or Firefox 11 on my other computers. Just this one. An earlier version of Firefox plugins appears, but not no matter what Add-ons.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files that store the registry extensions.

    Delete the files (extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) extensions.* and compatibility.ini in the profile folder of Firefox to reset the extensions registry.

    New files will be created if necessary.

    See "extension corrupted files:

    If you see disabled extensions, is not compatible, in "tools > Modules > Extensions ' and then click the Tools button, on the left side of the search bar (or click on the"Find updates"button in older versions of Firefox) to do a check of compatibility or to see if there is an available update compatibility.

    Firefox 4 is unable to install add-ons. After download the 'installation' bar stuck in the beginning and never ends.
    After that I updated to 3.6, FF4 to see any of my previous modules.
    When you try to install the new, I see no error dialog box or message, just install bar is not going anywhere.

    To anyone out there yet with this issue.
    The solution that worked for me was to create a new user profile.
    Give it a try, if it works you can just move your settings and other things more.

  • Cannot install add-ons in Firefox 4 "[Add on] could not be installed because Firefox failed to modify the necessary.".

    I tried to install add-ons for Firefox 4, but were unsuccessful.

    If I try to install inside the about: addons, the add-on will download, but then the installation bar will not change.
    If I try to install from addons.mozilla.org, the add-on download but then I get a message in the info box on site (at the side of the address bar) which reads, "[module] could not be installed because Firefox failed to modify the necessary."

    If I try to install any other modules after that, I get an error.

  • Unable to install add-ons

    When you try to install a new Add On I get message "You need Firefox to install add-ons." and add to the occult Firefox button. Frustrating, because it is already installed of course to access the page in the first place!

    You can enter Subject: config in the address bar, locate all preferences starting from general.useragent and ensure that they are in their default state (otherwise, a reset button will appear when you select them)?

    With Extension manager CC cannot install add-ons on Lightroom

    Help, please

    Dear Alexander

    Please tell us the name of the product you are trying to install Lightroom. Most Lightroom products install in the folder downloads to your computer. Please search for a ZIP file in the folder downloads to your computer.

    Have you checked the section "where to Find It' page of the product on the site of Adobe modules? This should give full instructions on installing your new product in Lightroom. If it's not, and you still have problems, please let us know.

    Kind regards

  • How to get Firefox to check the compatibility of the addon first, then ask me if I want to continue the update of Firefox?

    How to get Firefox to check the compatibility of the add-on first, then ask me if I want to continue the update of Firefox? The update process currently only told me that an add-on has been disable after you apply the update to Firefox. Options > Advanced Options > switch to the update tab, "Warn me if this turns off one of my modules," doesn't seem to work.

    delores51

    This is an add-on that does this.

    https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/is-it-compatible/

    More specifically, what modules are always appear as incompatible after a Firefox updated? Firefox 10, extensions that are made properly shouldn't be a problem, with a few exceptions.

    Extension that contains a binary code must be compiled for each new version of Firefox. These modules are usually installed by applications on security Norton, McAfee, ZoneAlarm, etc..

  • Firefox for android crashes at start-up since the update of the lollipop

    Whenever I start Firefox on my M8 Verizon HTC ONE since the update of the lollipop, it crashes after about a second or two. I use the latest version of Firefox on the game store and the behaviour continues even after uninstalling Firefox and do a clean install.

    Thank you, this is very valuable information. I have filed bug #1140830 to this topic, so let's hope that mozilla engineers will look at this issue soon...

  • Firefox 2.0.0.6 does not show the update tab in Edit/Preferences/Advanced

    Support said to turn on automatic updates for Firefox to Edit/preferences/advanced, and then on the update tab. I don't have any update tab showing so guess I'm screwed again. Do I need a better version of Linux (have Freespire) or what is happening here?

    This has happened

    Each time Firefox opened

    HAL,

    Updates for versions of Firefox that come with Linux are usually updated through the program for this Linux distro repository. Controls for update in these versions of Firefox are disabled (grayed menu) or these items are removed from the interface of Firefox.

    That said, Freespire is basically dead - http://www.freespire.org/ . The homepage has always 2007 information and their support forum has little activity - http://support.freespire.org/ - is still responsible, but he did it yesterday when I answered a similar announcement here.

    IMO, install Ubuntu or Kubuntu (which uses KDE, like Freespire done).

    I do not understand your question. Download IE8? Do you mean the installer for IE8? It's here.

    You try to install KB2618444? They make 3. For IE6, IE7, and IE8. You probably download one from a different version of Internet Explorer you have...
    I'm going to guess you really want that for IE8.
    That's it: IE8-WindowsXP-KB2618444 - x 86 - ENU.exe
