I use firefox on my work computers so everytime i sit on a new computer , it doesnt sync my theme nor my vpn addon.Just the adblock addon gets synced .Why is this happening? In chrome all the externsions and themes get synced automatically, i never have to install any addon by my self

Add-ons that aren't hosted at the official Add-ons website don't get synchronized. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/

Do you find your Theme and VPN add-on there?

If the VPN is active I would think it is removed for that reason. As Firefox does not do support for your VPN as well it is a proxy. Please see their Extension page : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/hoxx-vpn-proxy/ as their Nome Page, Support Page, and Support Email Address is their and let them figure ot why their VPN does not transfer with your settings. We do not have answers for their Extension.

As well your Security at work could be the issue of it not being transferred, check with your IT Support. I would think it would be blocked if they are smart.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
