Firefox Community Forum

Hello!

I first installed Video Download Helper several weeks ago and it worked fine. However, since the update of 04 March, 2026, it no longer works with YouTube. (It does, however, still work with Instagram.) Having checked all of the settings (which I had/have not changed), I uninstalled it today and then re-installed it. This hasn't helped. With YouTube, the Downloader icon (pinned to toolbar) simply remains grey and does not show any videos when opened. I am using the latest, fully updated version of Firefox with Windows 10.

Can anyone help, please?

Many thanks,

Stuart.

The new version of Download helper is uncommissioned for YouTube. I have tried everything including reinstalling, clearing cookies and catch etc. How can I just revert back to prior version as this seems to be a degraded version?

On my Firefox I have click something and choose Copilot. What I did have remove Chatgpt and enable Copilot. I want to have Chatgpt back but I cannot enabled. Please help?

Hello, Mozilla. I really appreciate the way you think about internet access. What you stated about the app is truly reflected within it: fast connections, accurate results, and most importantly, the security. However, when it comes to advertisements, I was really expecting that whenever I watch YouTube contents, there will be no ads shown. To my surprise, ads are still there. I provided a snapshot of my desktop to give a proof about this. Is there somehow a way to get rid of them, like perhaps an extension to block ads? If there's none, that's fine as well. Thank you and high praise to the developers of this browser.

FF updated to 150 and I tried to use the new VPN feature but couldn't find it. Looked up the directions and couldn't find where it was supposed to be. After trying the hamburger, more tools and customize toolbar I made the mistake to 'reset toolbar'. I lost my extension shortcuts and when I tried hamburger-more tools-customize toolbar they weren't there. I tried doing it from the extension page, no luck, then I tried to disable the extensions and reenable in hopes their icons would repopulate the toolbar, no luck. Is there a way to do this? It's like FF is blocking me from adding them from the customize toolbar page and the extensions page. Also, I never did find the FF VPN either after it updated to FF 150.

Thanks in advance!!

I'm away at another location for a few months out of the year. The computer in the other location is almost identical to this one, done in a very simple manner, by using a backup and then reinstalling everything from previous computer to current, most of which is data.

The Firefox profile is copied over and then the version of the program from that other computer is copied, so the profile and program match. The last step is to disable each add-on individually, then to immediately enable them again. (Otherwise, the browser won't connect to the internet.)

I followed the same procedure today as every single time. But then I noticed the blank new tab add-on isn't working. And upon looking at the add-ons...none of the enabled ones are listed (or working). Only the disabled and recommended ones. I don't even know which were installed, and would have a hell of a time figuring out which ones are supposed to be there, and how they're set up.

Where did they go, and how can they be reinstated?

This has never happened before, and I've been doing this same thing for at least 3 years.

Thanks in advance.

The above topic doesn't really apply to this. There was no option for this problem.

Now, I use Firefox Relay to mask my email address. It has always been an icon on the toolbar. It has now disappeared. I would like to use it but can't without that icon.

Please help. Thanks.
