I am using SuperStart add-on, which used to open in a new tab. After upgrading to Firefox 41 now you stupid new tab controls appeared, and my add-on disappeared.

"edited for language"

My language is a proportionate response to what mozilla did to me.

Now I have to go back to older versions and restore a backup. Thank you for creating problems for me.

this is a community forum, and people volunteering their time to help you here are other users like you - so starting off by insulting everyone isn't appropriate!

back to your issue: the developer of that addon would need to update it for firefox 41. lacking that you can use the https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-override/ extension and set the start page to about:superstart

The add-on is present in the list of add-ons. No reports that it doesn't work, it just doesn't do what it used to - OPENING IN A NEW TAB. Now instead of Super Start I see some *******. And no, thanks, I won't change my homepage. It has nothing to do with my problem. If you can't help, better don't respond.

Thank you for your effort anyway, but my complain was against mozilla, not against you, so don't take it that personally.

People, you must be total idiots! Now my browser is updating without my permission! Look at the screenshot! So now I'm totally fucked! I can't stop this from happening. WTF is wrong with you?!?!? If I say I don't want to update, that mean I fucking don't want to update! And don't tell me to calm down, your browser it crap!
