FIrefox 56 breaks NoScript functionality removing access to it's icons. How do I fix this or roll back to a prior version of Firfox?

The NoScript add-on does far more for security than Mozilla's own updates. Breaking the add-on functionality makes the browser far less safe. I do not understand why Mozilla cares so little about security that they will break critical tools for preventing attacks.

How can I get back the Icons to interact with NoScript?

If that's not possible, how can I roll back to a version of FireFox that still fully supports add-ons? Is there a way to backup installed add-ons first?

Ahh, thank you much!

I searched the forums here, but didn't think to search on NoScripts end.

And that has fixed it.

I apologize for jumping to conclusions about where fault lay when I saw the big legacy tag on the Add-Ons.

Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled followed by a normal restart 100% fixed for me.

I do see that 57 plans to dispense with the Legacy add-ons though, so I'll need to be careful with updates moving forward.

Programs such as the Internet browser should be updated regularly. For a security reasons.
