Newest Firefox upgrade problems
I am a personal user. After installing the latest upgrade on my laptop (not the computer I am using now), Firefox now says I'm part of an organization and don't have permission to change settings. It no longer recognizes several browser extensions, including my Bitwarden extension (most annoying). Do I have to uninstall Firefox completely?
TIA

Hi Laurel, could you click that message about the organization? It should open the Enterprise Policies page (the other way is to type or paste about:policies in the address bar and press Enter to load it).
This page has two panels, Active and Documentation; ignore Documentation. What is listed on your Active panel? Then we can speculate on why that is there and how to remove it.
not sure if this is the same issue, but this is what is showing in my active policies

Hi Amy, the ImportEnterpriseRoots policy instructs Firefox not to limit itself to certificates provided by Mozilla, but also to trust certificates in your computer's centralized certificate files (such as the Windows certificate store). Since most third party security software intercepts your browsing using fake certificates, this cuts down on the number of certificate errors and avoids you having to import certificates into Firefox. For that reason, I'm going to assume you have a program like Avast, AVG, Bitdefender, ESET, or Kaspersky that intercepts your browsing activity. If you don't have any security software that does that, we would suggest investigating whether any spyware could be intercepting your browsing.
