Hi In Firefox Quantum 76.0.1 when I go to the Firefox theme page and click on a theme or an add on It just comes up with ONLY FOR FIREFOX DOWNLOAD FIREFOX NOW when in reality Firefox is already installed. This mean I just cannot install new themes or add ons as they all say the same thing

1. What the heck am I doing wrong?

2.How can i get the themes site and add on site to recognize that Firefox is already installed?

In other past versions it just says INSTALL NOW and you click on it to install the theme or add on

This means the website thinks you are using Firefox v47.0.1 on a Windows 7. Is that correct?
