My add-ons suddenly disappeared. How do I get them back?
I was using Firefox earlier today and when I came back to use it tonight, all my add-ons were gone. I don't know how to get them back and I don't remember which ones I had installed because I had quite a few. My plug-ins and personas and bookmarks are still here but where did my addons go and how can I retrieve them and their data?

I think I restored a majority of them back now. I was only truly worried about one addon's data but I found it while searching through the Firefox folder somewhere. Thank you so much for your help!

I think that Firefox created a second user profile.
Try switching to the original profile by running the Profile Manager.
More details can be found here.
NOTE: Do not delete any profiles.
I tried what the page says and it says I only have one profile, "default." I clicked on that and everything is the same. My add-ons are still gone yet everything else is in tact :(
Try the following:
- Open the Run menu from the Windows Start Menu
- Open
%appdata% - Open Mozilla
- Open Firefox
- Open Profiles
- Open the folder inside of the Profiles folder
- Open Extensions
From this folder you can find the files for your installed extensions.
The XPI files will be named after the extension.
Ex.
tabscope@xuldev.org.xpi = Tab Scope add-on
You can use the names of these files to find your extensions.
Since this is an inconvenience, you can upload a screenshot of this folder and I will post the names and links for you.
More information on posting a screenshot can be found here.

If you continue to loose extensions and their data, please post below.
I opened the folder inside of the profiles folder, but i didn't find the extensions folder
