hello, this is a third-party product and not provided by mozilla. if you need help with the addon, please contact the support esources it makes available.

citing from their homepage:

Normally, when you purchase a license from Firefox with Video DownloadHelper installed, the license will be automatically installed. If this is not the case, or you already had a license, go to VDH settings, More > Conversion and click Register an existing license, enter your license key and click Register license.

"you purchase a license from Firefox..."

Hmm a bit misleading when Firefox is the current name of web browser and there is no products you can purchase from Mozilla.
