I am trying to add in new add-ons. When I open the add-on the download tab is highlighted with the message that I need to download Firefox. I have Firefox downloaded and it says I have the most current version. I have restarted machine to now avail. When I click on the download firefox tab I get a file that downloaded but cant get it to execute. I am running windows 10
