i have about 5 different facebook video downloader on firefox and nothing I have even tried disabling all add on and still nothing

Were there video entries previously? Others have lost file types from Applications and an old handlers.json is available on a non-Mozilla site if you are game to try replacing yours. You could rename the existing handlers.json file in case you want to reuse it.

I have no idea what you are talking about. I am not any kind of computer whizz just a ignorant lay person. Explain it to me like you are trying to explain to a kid

The list of Applications in Settings is contained in a file called handlers.json in your Firefox profile. You could try replacing it with a more comprehensive file found online.

Do you want to play or download videos on/from sites other than Facebook, for example, YouTube?
