Looks like a lot of good improvements in this version all around, particularly some great performance increases on the mac version!



Firefox update adds detailed tracking reports and password tools

Firefox is really getting nice. The tracker protection/reporting is a needed addition to web browsers. I already have it covered with addons, but it's good for people who just use a default browser and/or can't manage sometimes complicated addons.
 
I booted into Windows 7 Pro this afternoon to do my usual of checking email, shopping, banking, etc. When I launched FF70 (32-bit ESR) I immeidately got a message tab saying the following add-ons were no longer supported by FF52. It was reporting that Tampermonkey and Ublock had both been disabled because they were not supported by FF52. Okay, but the fact that I was using FF6x.x something and it just got upgraded to FF70 makes no sense to say the add-ons are not supported by version 52. This is the second time in as many years (maybe the same 12-month period) in which an update to FF led to add-ons not being supported.

Does anyone remember the fix the last time this happened? I now will use FFF even less in Windows because of this crap.

It sounds like to me, based upon your prior post and this one, that you have a corrupt Firefox profile. You might try to create a new one to see if that takes care of the problem.
