Hi sta2109,

Here's an easier method to re-install Widevine:

Type or paste about:support in the address bar Press Enter Under Application Basics Next to Profile Folder Click the Open Folder button Close Firefox

In your Profile Folder find the folder gmp-widevinecdm Move it to your desktop

Start Firefox A new WidevineDRM module will install Go to Add-ons/Plugins and Check For Updates

You can delete the gmp-widevinecdm folder on your desktop.
