Extensions don't seem to be loading after upgrading to 61.0.2. They show up in the extensions window but preferences are not available to change and the icons for the extensions don't show up on the navigation bar nor are they hidden anywhere. The extensions seem to exist on the system but are stuck in some sort of limbo. See attached screen shot. I know they are not working because javascript works on pages and Ads show up (noscript/ublock, etc.).

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1474255 - This was the closest thing I could find to anything similar to my current problems but I am on OSX not Ubuntu.

Regards

It is possible that there is a problem with files in the profile folder that store the extensions registry.

Delete the extensions.* files (extensions.json, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder with Firefox closed to reset the extensions registry.

New files will be created when required.

See "Corrupt extension files":

You can check if there is a update available in case of issues.

  • click the cogwheel button (left of the Search bar) on the about:addons page to "Check for updates"

If this didn't help then delete add-ons.json and possibly prefs.js in case there is a problem with preferences.

You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
