Using Windows XP.

Since you have adopted your "aggressive release cycle" approach, with every upgade to FireFox, you have broken compatibility with the "Plain Old Favorites" extension.

In the Version 3 releases, all I had to do was add the contents of a locally installed extension into the global "Mozilla FireFox/extensions" folder and the extension was inherited by all users.

Since then it appears that I have to separately install any new add-ons on a per-user basis, which is a real pain. Tell me this isn't so. This has implications for any corporate installers as well.

Why lack of Firefox support for "Plain Old Favorites" and the programmer maintaining it? I would have thought it should be a default plugin for Windows users so that FireFox can integrate with the Windows Task Bar "Favorites" extension.

It is much easier to to provide a link to Favorites in your "Start Menu" bar than use FireFox Bookmarks.

hello brianleetamau, please see http://mike.kaply.com/2013/05/13/more-major-changes-coming-in-firefox-21/ about the way to install extensions globally.

regarding the compatibility of the "Plain Old Favorites" extension: please try if you can get it to work with version 1.4 of the extension which is available at https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/plainoldfavorites/versions/?page=1#version-1.4 or else please try contacting the author of the addon.
