Can I have my accessibility add-ons back please?
So I updated firefox a little while ago, and then it told me that some of my add-ons were disabled because they couldn't be "verified." The add-ons in question serve as accessibility tools, and I use one or the other for 90% of my internet usage. I need to know how to turn them back on, but all I can find is that I have to ask the developers to sign on with firefox. This is not an acceptable solution to me.

Hello katthekonqueror, you can enabled it again, but will only solve the problem temporarily as the add-on will need to be signed at a certain point...firefox 44, do the next steps:
- In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter. The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear.
- Click I'll be careful, I promise! to continue to the about:config page.
- copy and paste in the search field the next bold xpinstall.signatures.required
- you can see that preference alone, double click on it to make it false
- close the tab, exit firefox and restart it.
thank you
