I switched to the Dev build[1] with 'xpinstall.signatures.required = false', and now that it's fixed I don't know if I'll go back. There seems to be a bunch of new features in Dev that I assume will arrive in Firefox eventually, but everything else being equal, I think I'll stick with it.
I'll probably turn 'xpinstall.signatures.required' back to true though.

- tsjq 7y agoMine says Developer edition beta 16 Version 67.0b16 (64-bit) Last updated = 03May2019. do I need to make this change? is it in the about:config ? 'xpinstall.signatures.required = false
- nitemice 7y agoYeah, so if you set 'xpinstall.signatures.required = false' in the about:config it'll let you use your extensions, but this is just a workaround. When a fix is fully rolled out (which should include Developer edition), then you won't need that (and probably should re-enable signature checking).
- tsjq 7y agothanks . I have toggled that in about:config and extensions are back to working. internally, what does this toggle turn off?
- omeid2 7y agoIt is actually much much faster than Firefox "standard". Might stick with it too!
- mnm1 7y agoThis is what I run and that fix worked. Are they planning on patching the dev build anytime soon? Doesn't look like there is an update for it. At least one can turn that stupid feature off until there is.
