  Thanks for the tips!

  Request to activate is whenever Firefox ask your permission to run this plugin to make it safer.

  Always activate = a time what you choose this option, the plugin works automatically whenever it needs

  Never activate the plugin = never executed, until you change the option to "Ask to activate or always»

• Added Yahoo Toolbar and Add-ons Manager no longer shows the extensions one I can't access the function "get addons".

  I added a Yahoo toolbar for Firefox that has been customized for Frontier Communications. I Ghostery installed as an add-on, and she flashed a message that Yahoo toolbar confused its effective functioning and I would like to disable or uninstall the toolbar. I open the Add-ons Manager to do and much to my surprise he now showed no extension at all, but they all seemed still works! All my plug-ins appear when I look on the Add-ons Manager. I checked the "Get function modules and it tries to load but does not succeed." I am running Firefox 10.0.2.

  Please also try to delete the extensions.* files in the right out of the Firefox profile folder. Firefox will recreate the files and information. Please note that at the next startup, Firefox can request permissions, opening several tabs with each tab corresponds to a detected extension. Select allow the installation, click continue, but click on restart only on the last tab. You can also try to leave out the suspects without selecting modules and continue. I hope it will solve the problem.

  Files & Firefox profile folder

  Another way would be to try a new profile. Firefox stores the data from profile/personal separately from its installation folder. If the new profile is correct, you can later copy/replace files of the old profile in it, for example. the places.sqlite who holds history + information of favorites, the folder of bookmarks which has backups dated only bookmarks, signons3.txt + signons.sqlite which are necessary to restore successfully a saved website names to user/passwords etc. Please note that in this case, although it is also possible to copy the extensions it may be preferable to install again via Tools > Modules search box or AMO.

  Hi Tony405,

  ·         What web browser do you use?

  If you use Internet Explorer, and then run Internet Explorer mode without modules and verify if the issue still persists.

  To determine if the error is caused by an add-on, run Internet Explorer in "no Add-ons" mode To do this, follow these steps:

  Run Internet Explorer in "no Add-ons" mode

  a. click Startand type Internet Explorer in the box to start the search.

  b. click Internet Explorer (No Add-ons). Internet Explorer opens without Add-ons, toolbars, or plug-ins.

  c. test Internet Explorer to verify that it works correctly.

  You can also follow step 4 of section to disable without add-on.

• Any way to install the Google search without Add-ons?

  Firefox (at least on the version of Linux) does not include the default Google search engine. She also cannot be manually installed by navigating to google.com because it does not "add a search engine" in the pull down menu in the search bar. (I'm not settle for alternatives such as DuckDuckGo or Startpage.)

  Is it possible to install it without the use of Add-ons?

  This looks like a bug. The 'add search engine"for Google works for me on Linux. Google also has their own blue banner that appears whenever I'm doing a Google search saying "Set Google as your default search engine."

  There is no way to manually edit search engines, however. The good news is, you don't need to keep whatever the module allows you to add a search engine. These modules are needed to get the search engine added. When you have added the Google search, you can remove the add-on.

• I'm just getting to know Firefox yet once, how do I know why Microsoft put plugins under my Add ons?

  I wanted to know if anyone knows why Microsoft put plugins under my add on area? It is everywhere in my programs and the computer, so that makes no sense to me? I would like to disable this if I don't train any problems on my computer. I use the photo gallery.

       OK    ANSWERED BELOW - The plug-in allows you to open and edit files using Microsoft Office applications
         * Office Authorization plug-in for NPAPI browsers
  

  I also wanted to know how to put the software missing in Firefox. I don't have Adobe shock wave, or Java on my computer. I just make a recovery. I was about to do for software sites, but there are weird things happening near your sites that I don't like. This is such a beautiful home for me!

  Thank you

  Microsoft does not have the plugins with modules - Mozilla has done.

• Compatibility Checker to add ons still when I start Firefox 14.0.1

  Hello

  You can try to reset Firefox by help (Alt + H) > troubleshooting information.

  (To return to the previous mode, close the new profile, start Firefox and choose the profile *.default . Alors_que Profile Manager is open, you can also remove the reset profile (the one containing the random numbers)).

• can software spies, junkware slow down the computer. the same as I ask for Add-ons!

  Hello

  1 can spyware, adware or junkware slow down the computer?

  2-can we some add-ons slow open IE?

  Thank you

  Johan

  Hello

  1 Yes, all forms of malicious and unwanted stuff such as spyware, malware, junkware, etc. can slow down your system based on what they have been coded for it.

  2. According to the addon, Yes, it can slow down your system. Also, a large collection of addons installed and running will also slow down your system.

  Kind regards

• -Add-ons not no projection in the add-on after the 42.0 Update Manager

  After the update to Firefox 42.0, when I open the Add-ons Manager, show none of my modules that were there already, and there is the message "You have no Add - ons of this type installed". However, the Add-ons are definitely still installed and still work.

  Windows 7 Edition Home Premium.

  Hmm, a user in another thread said extensions endangered at Windows startup. Sometimes 'cleaning' software will change the files in the profile folder of Firefox on a calendar, including at Windows startup. If you have a software like that, you can exclude Firefox?

  Two other thoughts:

  (1) you use a complete theme? It is more than a nice toolbar background and can affect the functioning of the integrated pages.

  (2) in case there is a problem with the damaged program files, you can try this:

  Clean reinstall it

  We use this name, but it isn't about deleting your settings, this is to ensure that the program, files are clean (not incompatible, corrupt or exotic code files). As described below, this process does not disrupt your existing settings. Don't uninstall NOT Firefox, that does not need.

  (A) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 42.0 https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).

  (B) the release of Firefox (if any).

  (C) simply rename the folder of the current programme, either:

  (Windows 64-bit folder names)

  C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
  

  TO

  C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
  

  (Windows 32-bit folder names)

  C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
  

  TO

  C:\Program Files\OldFirefox
  

  (D) run the installer downloaded to (A). It should automatically connect to your existing settings.

  Page modules work in the reinstalled Firefox? If this is not the case, there is always a problem in the profile folder.

  Note: Some plugins can only exist in this OldFirefox file. If it is missing something essential, present in these files:

  • \OldFirefox\Plugins
  • \OldFirefox\browser\plugins

  Otherwise, there is no reason to keep the old folder except research/curiosity.

• Add - ons do not appear in the add-on Manager

  When I go to tools > Add-ons, the page does not work in one of the following ways:

  • By clicking Extensions gives an empty frame
  • Click on get the modules to display "Loading."... "and it never ends
  • Clicking on the aspect gives an empty picture frame
  • Do a search always can find nothing

  I tried following the steps described here: (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/941626?esab=a & as = aaq), which remove extensions.* and compatibility.ini, but that did not help.

  OK, it's a good news, now see: transfer of data to a new profile - Firefox

• How can I make Firefox stop loading 9 three old tabs (recognition successful installations of Add-ons) whenever it starts up?

  I tried to clear the cache, uninstall Add-ons, then restarting.
  I also tried to change the start page in Options/general/start, but the change is not saved. Upgrade to higher versions of Firefox has not remedied the problem. Other suggestions posted on the Web don't work anymore.
  The three tabs that come back are: Welcome to the saved password Editor, thank you for the reminder Fox update and thank you for the installation of the coloured tabs. I need the two first modules, so please do not suggest delete them completely.
  Thank you in advance!

  Have you tried training the preferences not saved article and deleted all the files as prefs.js and prefs prefs-# .js and a possible user.js file in the Firefox profile folder?

  You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

• After upgrading to 6.0, the Add-ons Manager will load all the data. It is said it loads, but nothing ever happens.

  After the upgrade to Firefox 6.0, when I click on tools, then on Add-ons, modules lance Manager and tells it to load. But nothing is ever loaded.

  This could be simply addons.mozilla.org getting hammered at times as people are looking for updates of the extension as Firefox 6.0/3.6.20, Thunderbird 6.0 and SeaMonkey 2.3 was released Tuesday today.

  Simply select the Extensions or Plugins or appearance (themes) and it will open this Panel next time instead of modules to get Panel.
