I am using Firefox Developer Edition by extracting core/* from setup.exe. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/ installs fine by: - setting these

// Activate extensions in core user_pref("extensions.autoDisableScopes", 11); // 15 - 4 = ALL - SCOPE_APPLICATION user_pref("extensions.enabledScopes", 5); // 15 - 8 - 2 = ALL - SCOPE_SYSTEM - SCOPE_USER

- downloading .xpi - renaming to its id: uBlock0@raymondhill.net.xpi - moving to core\browser\extensions\ - starting Firefox

Doing the same with https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/always-right/ fails with: "could not be verified for use in Firefox Developer Edition and has been disabled." It can be installed from AMO, and also from the xpi file by opening it.

Please help me. https://github.com/autonome/Always-Right/issues/1

I checked the signedState in the extensions.json file and notice signedState: 1

This means SIGNEDSTATE_PRELIMINARY: 1 - Add-on is preliminarily reviewed That might be the cause that the extension only works when installed in the profile folder. Other extensions that work may have:

  • SIGNEDSTATE_SIGNED: 2 - Add-on is fully reviewed
