These extensions do not meet current Firefox standards so they have been deactivated
Some windows update got applied resulting in a reboot - which restarted Firefox (66.0.3) - upon restarting a bunch of extensions that I use all the time have been disabled. For example, Chrome Logger.
Any workaround or do I just need to downgrade back to a version where I can run the extensions that I use?

Mozilla has rolled-out a fix for this. The fix will be automatically applied in the background within the next few hours, you don’t need to take active steps.
In order to be able to provide this fix on short notice, they are using the Studies system. You can check if you have studies enabled
- Go to [=] > Options > Privacy & Security.
- Make sure Allow Firefox to install and run studies is check marked.
I you had it disabled, you can disable studies again after your add-ons have been re-enabled.
They are working on a general fix that doesn't need to rely on this and will keep you updated.

This is a problem with an expired intermediate certificate that is used to verify signed extensions that causes extensions to get disabled. This is being worked on.
See:
- [/questions/1257928] Will the disabling of add-ons be fixed, or is it the new way?

At about 6:10 PST we received a report that a certificate issue for Firefox is causing add-ons to stop working and add-on installs to fail. Our team is actively working on a fix. We will update as soon as we have more information.

A possible workaround for now is to set the time one or more days back, but that can cause other problems. You may have to delete extensions.json in the profile folder to make Firefox re-enable extensions that have been disabled.
