Currently using FF 63.0.1, but I'd hoped that upgrade would resolve the ongoing problem.

Extensions work normally after reboot, but within a day, are again missing. Eg. scroll up/down initially available, but then symbols disappear from page. Others in toolbar look fine, but do not activate when I attempt to use them. When I restart FF, it's back to functioning, but only for a short time. frustrated.

I easily went over the character count, so am dividing this response in 2.

Thanks for the quick reply. The extensions I'm aware of are Australis-like refresh in URL bar, close tab by double right click, scroll to top, simple new tab button, tranquility reader, undo close tab. I don't know whether Stop button ever has worked. And my reliable All tabs helper still works, but the sidebar lists constantly disappear, and I have to first click on another function, eg. downloads, then back to ATH and ask it to search the list. Then the contents appear again in my sidebar.
