How do I turn off auto updating of my add on scripts? In particular, I'd like to stop the auto-updating of Greasemonkey. I'm running Firefox 56.0.

Robert PS. I have already tried Firefox 57 and it don't float my boat.

Open the Add-ons Manager. Locate the add-on and double-click it. Scroll down. You should find the Automatic Update selectors.

Unless the Addon options give you that option some have and some don't have turn off options. Other then to disable them.
