Answer» I'm having an issue with FireFox. I'm currently using version 14 and when I updated to version 15 this problem became permanent, so I went back to version 14 and set FireFox not to update.
The problem is that usually when I use FireFox after it's been shutdown for a while and use the right click menu, be it on tabs or in an open area of the page itself, I don't get access to control of many of my add-ons. However if I shutdown FireFox and restart, the right click menu is as it should be.
I'd like to find a solution to this so I can allow FireFox to udate as newer versions are available.
Any help to get this sorted would be greatly appreciated, skilz853Have you looked in about:config yet ? ?Hey Patio, Yes I have, but not sure what to look for, as somethings got to be changing when the right click menu is not as it should be and when it is, and that's what I'm trying to find out. I can look in about:config all day and if I don't know what to look for, I wouldn't know it if I stumbled across it. Thanks tho The problem with extensions/addons in FireFox is 90% of them are written independently...and the Authors cannot possibly keep up with how FAST the FFox versions are coming...nature of the Beast. Therefore things that may have WORKED wind up broken...
One workaround i suggest is MRTech toolkit... In there there is an option to NOT have the browser check if addons are up to date. Once unchecked 92% of existing addons work properly in newer ver. of the Fox. This seems to be a weird situation, as all the add-ons work as they should, as long as the right click menu on a tab or open area on the page itself is displaying all the options to control the add-ons. The issue arises when the right click menu only displays a few items and not all as it does when it's working as it should Luckily, in FF 14 if all items don't SHOW up in the right click menu, shutting down FF and restarting has ALWAYS corrected the right click menu. However when I upgraded to version 15, no matter how many times I shut FF down and restarted, the right click menu never displayed all items as it should.
Thanks for you INPUT, skilz853
