After windows 7 update kb/3006137, all extensions are disabled.
This is the second time I have installed a windows 7 update and all my extensions are disabled with no button to enable in the extension window. Last time I reinstalled them all, which is a pain. This time it happened after installing update "kb/3006137." I am using Firefox 36.0. Windows 7 64 bit.
Any solutions to this problem? I don't like the thought of going back before the update, since critical updates are critical.
It is possible that there is a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
Delete the extensions.* files (e.g. extensions.json, extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Profiles
New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files":
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Unable+to+install+add-ons
If you see disabled or not compatible extensions in "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left end of the Search bar to check if there is a compatibility update available.
If this hasn't helped then also delete possible addons.json and addons.sqlite files.

Every-time I restart my PC, all the extensions / add-ons are disabled. And Firefox is opening all the extensions (each in a tab) and is asking to install each-time.
Mozilla has been in contact with those other companies for over a month now about Firefox 5 being released today. <br />
Try running the Live Update for McAfee. <br />IDM said they should have an update ready in a few days.
The thing I am curious about is that if you are aware that your other software is slow at keeping up with Firefox releases, why you allow Firefox to update on the first day of the new release. IMO, you are setting yourself up for disappointment. -

Hi,i have iphone 4S, after updating ios 7, all functions are ok but i can't see my balence because when i dial for balance inquiry ( as *124#) it does not respond or even say that this number is not in use. How can i sort out this problem?
Yes lucky me . If all troubleshooting has been done in Resolve iOS update and restore errors and if you have at least taken it into a store where they could try a restore themselves then that would suggest a hardware fault with the iPhone.
If you are out of warranty then it is correct that they would quote you an out of warranty service fee. From here it would be a matter of trying the steps above and if you have already tried then doing the service when you do have the cash. -
I am getting the followinf when going into Gmail
Some important features may not work in this version of your browser, so you have been redirected to the Basic HTML version. Upgrade to a modern browser, such as Google Chrome.
When I go to upgrade to a modern browser it tells me:
If you're using a supported browser,'''''''''(which I am) '''''''''but see a message in Gmail that your browser is unsupported, you may be using an extension that interferes with browser detection. Try disabling your browser extensions to resolve the problem.
All my extensions are disabled. and I want to use firefox gmail and see all my features. What gives?You can check for problems caused by a possibly corrupted user agent.

I do not see much about coloum 14, but I am guessing this file is stored somewhere and its corrupt. Update.xul suggests that it is the update file. Do you still have this in your downloads folder? There are two places for update and for a clean reinstall:
[http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/] in a private window will give you a new install or you can choose from here: [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/]
This is what the file should look like; [http://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/log/7a2edc5171e6/toolkit/mozapps/extensions/content/update.xul] If you can copy and paste that file from a working browser we can see the issue, but it will just look the same as the error.
if you can replace the contents of the file locally with what it should look like it will fix the error, but who knows if there are other errors. May be best to delete the updater and save all the profile folder contents. -
Dell Latitude E6520 fails to boot after Windows Updates
Hello,
I have a Dell Latitude E6520 that is not starting up after Windows updates. It installs updates and requests a reboot, after which it blue screens at the splash logo and reboots again. This goes on indefinitely. The only way to repair it is to boot from
a recovery disk and run:
dism /image:D:\ /cleanup-image /revertpendingactions
This is after running dism /image:D:\ /get-packages and noticing that several updates are still in an "Install_Pending" state. These are the kb's that are pending:
kb2982378
kb2978742
kb2977629
kb2976897
kb2973112
kb2972211
There were other updates, but those showed as installed. I would post the WindowsUpdate.Log, but I do not see a button to attach a file and the log is very long. Here is what I think is relevant towards the end of the log:

Hi,
I am new to SP 2010. I have installed Share point 2010 server (trial version) on my Windows 7 Home Premium Laptop by following the below link.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee554869%28office.14%29.aspx
Everything went fine and was able to see the new sharepoint site after completing configuration wizard. SP2010 Central Admin also worked fine.
However, after windows update, sharepoint site is not working. I was able to see the site working for more than a day before windows update. SP2010 Central Admin is still working. Executed "PSCONFIG" after
update but still no good.
I saw a warning "The Security Token Service is not available" in Central Admin and did some research to fix the issue but nothing worked.

I even tried to uninstall Sharepoint and re-install the same. It worked even second time until it went thro' windows update. App pools are running and Websites are up and running in IIS.
Can anyone please help me to fix this issue?

Profiles being reset after windows updates?
Hi All
I'm having issues with Outlook 2013 SP1 resetting our users profiles after Windows Updates have been applied. Their profiles are being reset whilst their previous profiles are being renamed to "BACKUP of <profile name>".
Office 2013 x86 has been deployed via VL Media onto Win7 x64 machines and we are distributing the ImportPRF registry key via GPO (set to Update) in order to customise the profiles on first run. (basic email account and attaching a default PST file)
It appears that after windows updates are applied outlook is triggering the first run process again and therefore resetting the users profiles back to the standard set in our PRF.
We used this method to configure Outlook 2010 and for the years of deploying Office 2010 we never had any issues. Can anyone suggest what might be going on here or what might have changed in Office 2013?
ThanksHi,

Pavilion Slimline s5257c-b Win 7 64bit - Locks up after windows update
I bought this computer for my kids a few years ago at Sam's Club and i cant find any support for it on the HP Support page. I found that this was not intended for the US, does that sound right?
It had been working fine until about 6 months ago. I had Auto Windows Update turned on. After an update, the pc would start to boot, get the HP splash screen, the Windows graphics and then the screen goes dark. You expect the accounts screen to come up but you get a black screen with the cursor. The only way out is to hold down the power button. It will come up in recovery mode and try to recover its self. Very rarely happens. I normally have to go into recover manager and pick a restore point before the windows update. I have since turned off windows update but every now and then an update gets through. I have looked for anykind of updates on the HP support site but it does not list the machine. I've let the support tool search my machine and it does not find the PC only the printer i have installed.
Any ideas what is going on?
Thanks
KenThanks for the explanation. It makes me feel a little better that could not find it.
I have not ran a registry cleaner on the computer but this system is primarily the kids to play their games and music. I did run the ms repair utility from the ms website you sent me. It found an error and repaired it. I will create a new restore point and then install the windows updates. Hopefully all will be better.
Thank you for your time and help. I really appreciate it. -
several times after system crashes and sometimes after windows updates my pinned tabs have disappeared. How can I back up the pinned tabs and bookmarks??
Firefox stores the bookmarks and the browsing history in the places.sqlite database file..
There are 10 rotating daily JSON backups (bookmarks-####-##-##.json) in the bookmarkbackups folder within the Firefox profile folder, one for each day that Firefox is started.

Pinned (App) tabs and tab groups are stored in the sessionstore.js file.

Windows Update Error 800B0109 after Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.320 Installed
Hi, I have this error message when running windows update, it happened after Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.320 installed.
Any idea how to resolve this?
Thank you.Hi,
Please make sure that your antivirus application does not scan the files in the
%windir% \SoftwareDistribution directory on any computer on which Windows Update Agent is installed.
You can also temporarily turn off the antivirus application and check the result.
Or run the following commands, and press Enter after each command:
Net stop wuauserv
cd %systemroot%
Ren SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old
Net start wuauserv
Try to install updates again.
