who gives you the right to say what plug-ins a person can use?
1 of the plug-ins is for my printer, one is for my mouse, one is for my VPN thru Bitdefender(which is the no. 1 anti-virus program currently).
You do not have the right to completely disable. Fix or I will seek a class action suit against your company. And I mean fix it within the next couple of days.

Instead of threats, why don't you tell us what the problem is?
Hi,
The people who answer questions here, for the most part, are other Firefox users volunteering their time (like me), not Mozilla employees or Firefox developers.
If you want to leave feedback for Firefox developers, you can go to the Firefox Help menu and select Submit Feedback... or use this link. Your feedback gets collected at http://input.mozilla.org/, where a team of people read it and gather data about the most common issues.
You should re-read FredMcD's first sentence.
I would say that Firefox has every right to offer its free product in a form which it believes safest for users. I would suggest you take up the issues you have with the plug-in producers and in not such a nasty way.
You could check that all your plug-ins are up-to-date.

Plugins which refer to say Flash Player, Silverlight, Java etc are not so Firefox version dependent.
I would say you are referring to Extensions and there is two possibilities. Either these Extensions are not signed to work in Firefox or the authors have not listed as compatible with Firefox 49.0. Many extensions provided by say Antivirus clients on Windows needs to be made for each new major Firefox version.
To explain the differences on Extensions and Plugins and other things grouped together as Addons. https://addons.mozilla.org/faq/

I think you are referring to the requirement that extension publishers get their extensions signed by Mozilla in order to install in recent versions of Firefox. Next to your question, you shared the names of several extensions that are currently disabled. I think these were the ones that especially concerned you:
- Bitdefender Wallet 4.1.5 (bdwteffv20@bitdefender.com)
- E-Web Print 1.23.00 (e-webprint@epson.com)
- Logitech SetPoint 6.5 ({F003DA68-8256-4b37-A6C4-350FA04494DF})
Does the Add-ons page say these are disabled because they could not be verified or is there another explanation? Do you know whether any updates are available for those extensions?
If you cannot get signed versions of those extensions and their functions are crucial for you, please see the section of the following support articles for advanced users, toward the end: Add-on signing in Firefox. In short, there are four other variants of Firefox in which you can use unsigned extensions. The most stable is the Extended Support Release of Firefox 45.
Regarding the password manager BitDefender Wallet:
I looked at the BitDefender forums and there were some French-language threads where users said they were able to get the extension activated by using the "Repair" function once or twice. I found an article for how to do that in the 2016 version and I suspect it's similar in the 2017 version:

If you try that, let us know how it goes.
