How do I know if my problem is related to add-ons?
Here are a few examples of add-ons affecting or breaking Firefox:
- Your default search has changed unexpectedly.
- Your home page or browser settings have changed.
- Changes in behavior when searching or browsing (such as unexpected redirects to a different website or search provider).
- Unexpected changes on web pages.
How can I fix this problem?
As a first step, you could restart Firefox with add-ons disabled (see Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to learn how). If the issue goes away, restart Firefox with add-ons enabled, then selectively disable add-ons until you figure out which add-on is causing the problem and either disable or remove the add-on.
