Hi thereI just updated my Firefox to 66.0.3 and all of a sudden, all myinstalled plugins were disabled (eg uBlock).Turns out that the release was buggy and they are working on a fix. Inthe meantime, you can get things going again through a trick: byenabling "participating in studies" you can get access to their hotfixto remedy this problem (though it can take some time before you getnotified once you enabled this option - up to 6 hours; it only took aminute for me).For more information, see the official blog post:https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2019/05/04/update-regarding-add-ons-in-firefox/If you haven't updated to 66.0.3, then I'd strongly advice to wait forthe next version to become available. Will safe you some pain.Cheers, Peter-- Peter ReutemannDept. of Computer ScienceUniversity of Waikato, NZ+64 (7) 858-5174http://www.cms.waikato.ac.nz/~fracpete/http://www.data-mining.co.nz/_______________________________________________wlug mailing list | [email protected]: https://list.waikato.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/wlug _______________________________________________ wlug mailing list | [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://list.waikato.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/wlug
