Recently I've upgraded my Firefox to 43.0 version and I have some issues with extensions. Cannot uninstall them or update... It's blocking page loadings and I have to refresh multiple times to see whole page.

How can I fix this on Ubuntu 14.04?

Are you talking about extensions, or plugins? Plugins are programs that Firefox finds on the computer.
