Firefox 9.01 keeps checking addon compatibility at startup. The option is not checked and the previous addon to disable doesn't work. Ideas?

It is possible that there is a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
Delete the files extensions.* (e.g. extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.
New files will be created when required.

If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar (or click the "Find Updates" button in older Firefox versions) to do a compatibility check or see if there is a compatibility update available.

Thanks for the information. Nothing worked, so I just uninstalled everything deleting all saved preferences and reinstalled. All is working now.
