You can find an instruction on the minimum and maximum version number of Firefox that the extension can be installed on and this value is added by the extension programmer. Fortunately it is possible to edit the extension and increase the maximum version number so that even the outdated extension can be installed on a newer version of Firefox.

Firefox will now download the add-on file which has a .XPI extension. Read More: https://www.raymond.cc/blog/enable-firefox-incompatible-add-ons-and-this-add-on-is-for-older-versions-of-firefox/
