Allowing installation of “unsigned” addons is supposedly not good but if this is the only way to get them working now then I will do it. Actually this setting allows installation of “unsigned” addons which is why the addons are “disabled”, as due to the expired signing certficate those extensions are now considered “unsigned”. Since I am using the ESR version, I can get along by setting in about:config to false for the time being and the “disabled” addons are working again. I searched and finally found out it was a problem on Mozilla’s end due to an expired certificate and not my fault. Imagine my anger then when I opened Firefox today (MacOS Sierra / High Sierra / Mojave and Windows 7) and was told along the lines of “some of your extensions cannot be verified and have been disabled”, which included NoScript. If NoScript died with the old extension system like Classic Theme Restorer, I would have dropped Firefox for good. About the only thing that keeps me with Firefox is the NoScript extension. As a user who have used Firefox for a long time, and witness how Firefox changed for the worse (in my opinion) due to things like dismantling of the old extension system (which contain very useful extensions like Classic Theme Restorer) and removal of options/features from the UI etc., I am increasingly disillusioned by Firefox.
