My internet is not working properly after installing addons fix for Firefox 52.9.
All of my saved tabs open as new tabs, I can't open any of the articles in my email newsletters, Gmail & other web pages don't load correctly, all of my browsing history is gone & sometimes I can't even get a web site to load. For example, I've been trying to open Google but instead of opening the web site, it just loads a new tab.

Is this the add-on that you tried using?
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/disabled-add-on-fix-52-56/
No it isn't. I am running Windows XP & that fix didn't work on it. There was a link posted on another part of the forum to download & install an updated certificate so WIN XP users would have their addons reenabled.
This is the link to that forum. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1258165#answer-1218833
The solution was posted by jscher2000 & is about 1/4 of the way down the page.
Can you attach your troubleshooting information?
You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
- Help -> Troubleshooting Information -> Profile Directory:
Windows: Show Folder; Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
I am trying but Firefox won't open that link. It won't open any new links, just new tabs. I'll keep trying. Right now, I'm using my work computer to reply to you.
It opened that link but I'm not seeing a menu button. Remember, I'm running Windows XP. Is there another way of accessing the troubleshooting info?
Type about:support in the address bar and press Enter. Under the main banner, press the button; Copy Text To Clipboard.. Now in the Reply Box on the forum page, do a right-click in the box and select Paste.
This will show us your system details. No Personal Information Is Collected.
You can tap the Alt key or press the F10 key to show the hidden Menu Bar temporarily or right-click empty space on a toolbar ad place a tick on Menu Bar.
I was able to post the troubleshooting data. Do you need more information?
Here is the troubleshooting page text. Now, how do I undo safe mode?

Yes, this report shows you were in Safe Mode: Safe Mode true
Are you starting Firefox normally via a desktop shortcut and aren't holding the Shift key?
You can check the target line in the Firefox desktop shortcut (right-click: Properties) to make sure nothing is appended after the path to the Firefox program.
