If you're having trouble running your Firefox extensions today, you're not alone: a glitch made all add-ons unusable, and Mozilla is working on a fix. As Engadget reports, it looks like an outdated certificate has messed everyone's extensions, because Firefox just recognizes them as incompatible. Tweets from the official Firefox browser plugin accounts and from Mozilla plugins show that the issue is being handled behind the scenes, but there is still no time to find out when everything will work normally. It looks like the issue should be resolved sooner than expected - we'll update this article if we hear anything else.
Extension power
The extensive library of extensions is one of the main reasons for choosing Firefox as a browser, there is no doubt that millions of users are embarrassed today. Firefox add-ons, from blocking ads to cleaning up page layouts, fast social page sharing, and download optimization, can dramatically improve the functionality of the main browser. You can even use Firefox extensions on the Android version of the browser so they can move around on your smartphone. "We are sorry for the issue we are currently having with plugins," Firefox said in a tweet. "We are working hard to resolve this issue and will keep you posted."
