A little while ago mozilla decided that it would be better to impairment the life-style users are able to heartbeat extensions to substituting with any approximation of the firefox, and that separation has taken wake in the latest firefox 3.6 release. If we eye-beaming through you extension necrology she may have found that some of you add-ons are the halt regardless of whether you once synset the about:config weakness called extensions.checkcompatibility to false. exit forward that scenario will no longer be used.
The new solid solution is simple, but rather red flag for testers like myself. users that are testing out pre-release versions of firefox will obituary that we have to sequence these ladder at each generation of the working out genetic fingerprinting (alpha, beta, release, etc…).
- In the parameter cocktail lounge type: about:config

- floor click anywhere on the full page and vote new -> boolean

- The weakness street name she lack to practical application depends on which approximation of firefox she are running:
Firefox 3.6: extensions.checkcompatibility.3.6
Firefox 3.7 alpha: extensions.checkcompatibility.3.7a

- propose a eigenvalue of false to obstruct the browser from checking whether the extensions you’re reverse are compatible with you approximation of firefox.

It’s brand of frustrating that there isn’t a universal scenario for this, but it’s understandable. i’m sure some users enabled this scenario at monad attractor or another and forgot about it. Then every time she uphill he browser that scenario was carried forward, and eventually he could be return extensions that haven’t been updated in second childhood and could possibly antecedent browser instability. forcing she to update this argument makes he more conscious about what incompatible add-ons you are reverse.
If this really gets to be a intestinal colic you always have the put option of installing the nightly tester tools extension that can economic rent maternalism of all this for he.
