A regular user of Google Translator, this add-on does not work anymore. If I click on the TRanslator button, the Google Translator will open up but immediately goes in to "search" or seems to try to link withsomething.

If I go to Google directly and sign on, I have accessto the Google Translator immediately. I would rather stay on the Firefox browser to access the Translator. I tried to refresh Firefox browser to see if that would solve the problem but to no avail..

Hi, I notice quite a few reviews of this extension that are reporting issues with Firefox 82.0.2, so it looks that you are not the only person that is experiencing issues and its developer will likely have to come with an update to address these issues.

You can possibly check the Browser Console for messages related to this extension. If you see moz-extension:// links then check the about:debugging page to see what extension these links are about (look for the UUID).
