everytime firefox loads it asks to intall addons (again). How to get it to stop asking all the time?
I have a few add-ons installed. When I start Firefox it always asks permission to install it again. It forces me to give permission to all add-ons and restart Firefox. It's actually maddening.

It is possible that there is a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
Delete the files extensions.* (e.g. extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.
New files will be created when required.

If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar (or click the "Find Updates" button in older Firefox versions) to do a compatibility check or see if there is a compatibility update available.
