Hi there,

I cannot seem to find the list of my installed add-ons, shouldn't I find it under "extensions" in the add-on page?

Instead i have the same page that is showed under "recommendations".

Is this some error, or I'm missing something?

Delete all extensions* files and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.
