How to prevent Firefox from opening multiple "Install Add-on" tabs?

Since I installed the windows 10, something happened to the Firefox browser. When I open the Firefox, it also opens six extra tabs - one for each add-on (Install Add-on). I have tried to disable, enable and remove the add-ons but nothing works.

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.
