Hi

My browser updated automatically, and I lost all my addons. I tried to installed them, and it shows the download bar complete. But when I go to extensions tab under add ons manager to enable it. The download bar is at zero. I have tried to restart the PC, restart the broswer. I even deleted the extensions under troubleshooting information/show profile folder as state in one of the help forums.

The addons that I want to reinstall are Adblock plus, VLC context menu, and Location Guard. Windows 8 64 bit, Firefox 36.0.4

Thanks in advance

I update to Firefox 37.0. And the problem no longer exist. I can download my addons.

If you have the same problem...go to "menu" then "add-ons" then "plugins". Then click on in blue "Check to see if your plugins are up to date". There i found an update for firefox to 37.0

take care
