Hi,

Please try this: In Firefox: Help (Alt + H) > Troubleshooting Information > Open Containing Folder. This opens your current Firefox Profile Folder & Files. Exit Firefox and delete the extensions folder and also the files named extensions.*. From the old Firefox folder copy only the extensions folder to this folder and any other folder and files bearing an extension's name (you can see this by doing a quick comparison of the two folders; most of the extra files/folders will have the extension name) and start Firefox. Firefox will open several tabs for the approval of the newly discovered extensions. Enable (tick) on all the tabs and click Continue, but click Restart Firefox only in the last tab. Firefox will automatically start and hopefully you'll have all the previous extensions back.
