Firefox v41 asking to Enable Add-ons Every Time I use Firefox
Using Windows 7 - since installing v41 every time I use Firefox it asks me enable every add-on rather than automatically loading them automatically - how can I prevent this from happening? I want them loading automatically like they were with v40.

It is possible that there is a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
Delete the extensions.* files (e.g. extensions.json, extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.
New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files":

If you see disabled or not compatible extensions in "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left end of the Search bar to check if there is a compatibility update available.
If this hasn't helped then also delete possible addons.json and addons.sqlite files.
You can also check for problems with preferences.

Thank you - Deleting the extensions.* files did the trick.
Glad to help. Safe surfing.
It happened again this morning - after starting Firefox a couple times (rather than the first time) - but at least I have some idea now of how to resolve.
If you continue to have problems,
Refresh Firefox {web link} is a LAST RESORT ! !
Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings
If you're having problems with Firefox, refreshing it can help. The refresh feature fixes many issues by restoring Firefox to its default state while saving your essential information like bookmarks, passwords, and open tabs.
