The newest release 70.0 disables ANY AND ALL of your personas - they worked perfectly in the previous version. The ONLY SOLUTION IS TO one by one, uninstall and then reinstall any or all of your favorite personas - NOTHING ELSE WORKS - WHICH IS BULLCRAP. Mozilla needs to test ALL UPDATES BEFORE MAKING THEM LIVE - but they OBVIOUSLY don't and then WE are left to figure this junk out on our own. HEY MOZILLA, "GREAT BUSINESS MODEL YA' GOT GOING - NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SO, does anyone even know if they Mr-Know-it-Alls that code this are even aware of what they screwed up but more importantly, do they even care??!!??

Sorry to hear you have this problem. I don't think this was an intentional change -- I have a sampling of themes that I've added for testing and when I got to the Add-ons page, I can enable them normally just as before. (And hey, the animated waterfall works again.)

It sounds as though an important add-on related file got corrupted during your update. However, I'm not very familiar with the files related to themes. Was the problem limited to themes or were extensions also affected?
