How do I downgrade back to Firefox 85 without breaking my addons?

more options

As the title says, accidentally updated this morning. Was running version 85 pretty handily. I just want to know how to go back.

I don't care about security issues. I actually tried to revert back myself using my current profile, but it broke all of my addons. Actually, it broke my ability to reinstall them too so even if I wanted them again, I couldn't download them.

Any help is appreciated. Personally, I would prefer to have a "disable until I care about it" button.

Yeah sorry, but that does not solve my problem. I actually read that prior to creating this thread.

I want to keep my profile and addons as they are. I don't want to create a new profile and reconfigure everything because that is extremely tedious.

ESR does not go far enough back for this to be a viable option either.

I had figured this would also be a bust, but I had hoped for some creative workaround.
