Your System Details does not show YouTube anything Try to re-install it. What link are you using?

Separate Issue; Your System Details shows;

Installed Plug-ins

Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 12.0.2.122 Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 12.1.2.152
Having more than one version of a program may cause issues. You must remove the older programs. Then get the current full installer.

Do you mean this extension:

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/youtube-flash-player/

If so, that actually is what it does: "This add-on forces YouTube™ to play videos using Flash® Player instead of the HTML5 player."

What were you hoping to accomplish with the extension, or in general, with YouTube?
