My extensions were disabled when resetting browser due to problems. All I see is the remove option, nothing about re-enabling them. My browsers have been changed as well, I want everything back that I had on December 31, 2014 or at least the re-enabling of my extensions. Thank you.

When you reset Firefox, Everything was removed and all settings reset to normal. You will have to re-install everything to restore it.


These can't get your data back, but will help in the future.

These add-ons can be a great help by backing up and restoring Firefox

FEBE (Firefox Environment Backup Extension) {web link} FEBE allows you to quickly and easily backup your Firefox extensions, history, passwords, and more. In fact, it goes beyond just backing up -- It will actually rebuild your saved files individually into installable .xpi files. It will also make backup of files that you choose.
