When I updated to version 42 something happened during the upgrade. The activity icon keeps circling and my staus-4-ever add-on bar remains on and wont go away. When I try to check for updates in options it does not show the update to version 42 but when I go into help about Firefox shows I have version 42. I tried restarting my computer and it still shows the download icon circling etc. T the shut down the computer and powered it back up with the same results. I refreshed Firefox and that didn't help either. any suggestions?

When you refreshed Firefox, did you update when there were not add ons as well as without the staus4ever addon bar?

I did not refresh with the add on's disabled. However I did disable the status 4 evar add on which obviously solved that problem all tho inconvenient.. My main concern right now is that when I check update status it is not showing the update to version 42, but when I look at troubleshooting in the help drop down it shows I do have version 42. The same thing shows version 42 when I look at about Firefox in the help drop down. When the next version or fix is ready will I still get it? Thanks for any help you can provide. lxllrl11300
