Hello,

I had the same problem, i found a solution :

You have to delete the file named chromeappsstore.sqlite, which is located in C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default

(where XXXX is your User name and xxxxxxxx.default is your profile name)

Then restart Firefox, it should recreate the file, and it should be working good now.

Note : Before deleting it, just rename it or make a backup, and make sure everything is working.

Hope this helps !
