In the mean time, installing the hotfix extension and running the script seems to help :)


I also using 56.0.2 (64 bit). Can you help me finding solution? I am on different date now to use FF, but I am already 2 days in the past. I tried to use your script and have: "// For FF < v57 >...? async function set_addons_as_signed() { Components.utils.import("resource://gre/modules/addons/XPIProvider.jsm"); Components.utils.import("resource://gre/modules/AddonManager.jsm"); let XPIDatabase = this.XPIInternal.XPIDatabase;

      let addons = await XPIDatabase.getAddonList(a => true);
  
      for (let addon of addons) {
          // The add-on might have vanished, we'll catch that on the next startup
          if (!addon._sourceBundle.exists())
              continue;
  
          if( addon.signedState != AddonManager.SIGNEDSTATE_UNKNOWN )
              continue;
  
          addon.signedState = AddonManager.SIGNEDSTATE_NOT_REQUIRED;
          AddonManagerPrivate.callAddonListeners("onPropertyChanged",
                                                  addon.wrapper,
                                                  ["signedState"]);
  
          await XPIProvider.updateAddonDisabledState(addon);
  
      }
      XPIDatabase.saveChanges();
  }
  
  set_addons_as_signed();
Promise { <state>: "pending" }"

EDIT: have this one now: ado.config({ consent: true }); inpl.anc.js:40

Also what hotfix you refer too. I can not install hotfix-update-xpi-intermediate@mozilla.com-1.0.2-signed.xpi on old version :/

EDIT2: Installed this fix using debuging but it is not for a old FF and got some errors:

Reading manifest: Error processing hidden: An unexpected property was found in the WebExtension manifest. Reading manifest: Error processing experiment_apis: An unexpected property was found in the WebExtension manifest.


Someone else posted this link https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/bkspmk/addons_fix_...

I can't really vouch for it, but sounds like it worked for them.


I installed hotfix-update-xpi-intermediate@mozilla.com-1.0.2-signed.xpi as temporary extension and then was able somehow to install it in standard way.


I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. Firm 56.0.2 user here as well. Refuse to go with a newer version. I don't even care that we're basically putting it on life-support at this point. Anyway thanks for the help. Couldn't stand youtube or basically any other website without adblock.


Heheh, more like they've taken it OFF support - but anyways, have you seen the way to install Mozilla's intermediate certificate on older versions? It seems like that one actually solves it! :)))
