So i just updated firefox and half of my extensions are not working (uBlock Origin, Stylish, Etc)

more options

my uBlock is on but ads still play on youtube my stylish doesn't have any of the styles i've installed anymore and every time i try to install a new one firefox freezes firefox color no longer automatically applies my theme (i have to go find the website and select it) and i lost the ability to load outlook.com/owa but thanks to a trick another user here (FredMcD) taught me (Manage data/Forget this site) i was able to regain access to it.

Also I would hope that it goes without saying but any responses suggesting Resets/Nukes will be ignored and reported. Let's try to work together to get this issue sorted out.

You can create a new profile as a quick test to see if your current profile is causing the problem.

See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.

I'm having a similar issue.

Since the last Firefox update, most of my add-ons stopped working. If I disable and then re-enable them they immediately work again and remain working as long as that FF session is active. But when I close Firefox, the next time I re-open it I have the exact same issue. I have to go through and disable and then re-enable all my add-ons. It's a real pain.

That's odd. My add-ons won't work even if i disable them and then re-enable them. But i do lose the ability to load pages like outloot and pixiv until i go to firefox options and delete their cookies & site data. And i have to do this every time i open firefox.

This can be a problem with the startup caches.

Try to start Firefox once with the -purgecaches command line switch to refresh the startup caches.
Make sure that Firefox is closed via "Firefox -> Exit/Quit Firefox".
