</p><p>I found (again) an explanation and instructions on how to fix this at: <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/waterfox/comments/7oeh8z/theme_font_size_changer_addon/" rel="nofollow">https://www.reddit.com/r/waterfox/comments/7oeh8z/theme_font_size_changer_addon/</a>
</p><p>I suggest anyone who wants this information should google the name of the add-on and "fix expiration date". Frankly, the hijinks being pulled around and through this issue make me VERY leery of using Firefox for anything ever again - can't trust them any more.

Supposedly these updated versions are "scheduled" to only last just so long, then are disabled. I have opted to go a different route to getting the font larger on the tabs, etc. If you check the response I got from jscher2000, on 1/5/18 @ 8:30:01 AM, there are instructions as to how to do this. It gives you larger print in that area, but you still can't choose a different font or font color. You also end up having to re-adjust the size of the webpage as well.

Reinstalled TF&amp;SC 56 and no go.
Has it been permanently disabled? Mac OS 10.11.6
If so, how do I get my toolbar size to increase and my bookmarks to increase in size so they are readable?
Or, is there a way to "reactivate" TF&amp;SC 56 (as apparently it has "expired" due to some coding)?
Again - I'm on a Mac OS so none of the Windows 'fixes" will work; spent all morning trying them all.

I just remove it, go back into "Get Add Ons", find Theme Font Size Changer, then scroll down to "All Versions" &amp; select Version 56, then add back to Waterfox/Firefox. It's a pain in the butt but at least not too hard to get it back. Really wish they would get rid of the latest version &amp; just go back to the Version 56 but I guess that one does not work with Firefox Quantum, so it is what it is. Apparently the developer of that add on does not want to bother fixing it to work with Firefox Quantum.

I didn't mind the Firefox Quantum upgrade but, since this add on is not available with it, I will use the Waterfox option. If Firefox Quantum gets "fixed" to allow the add ons we used to be able to get, then I "may" go back. So far, I am happy with Waterfox. Sorry if you think we are making a big issue about all this but, for me, anyway, the more you push me to use what you say I should use &amp; it doesn't work for me, the more I will go the other way &amp; use something that does work for me.

<p>I think that Waterfox uses Firefox code - just with some of the things removed that the -original- Firefox was developed to escape from before they went commercial and joined the crowd. It's an attempt to get back to the original Firefox code of ethics. That's where the name comes from - fire and water as opposites. It uses the add-ons developed for Firefox because it basically IS Firefox with the problem parts stripped back out.
One other thing I've noticed is that I can open a test page and then open every link in a new tab and have 200-250 tabs open at the same time and it stays stable. Firefox bombs out and freezes my laptop at about 150 tabs, same site.
</p>I tried the Waterfox idea and am so happy to see again.

Well, you're saying that the volunteer contributors on this support forum, who have been looking for an answer, have just been wasting their (spare) time.
Ouch.
</p><p>But after I counted to ten, and went over this whole thread and especially your original post, I must say that we have been too focussed on the Theme, Font and Size Changer add-on, while all you want is to increase certain fonts.

<p>I just switched browsers to Waterfox today and downloaded the previous version of Theme Font &amp; Size Changer (version 56) and it works great with Waterfox. In fact, Waterfox is just like the old Firefox, I much prefer it and it seems faster than Quantum.
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
</p><p>I noticed the same thing. After finally figuring out that that Quantum CAN'T be fixed because of how it's built, I switched to Waterfox and found it's everything I wanted Firefox to do and it IS quite a bit faster. Since they're supposed to use the same source, I don't understand why it works so much better than the latest and (not) greatest effort for Firefox.
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
