Disabling Add-ons
Be sure to disable or remove Add-ons that you are not using. Each Add-on is code that has been contributed by a different individual or team. The more you have installed the more likely they are to conflict with each other in some way.
If this does happen you may experience problems using Firefox, it may for example become very slow. You can test if your installed Add-ons are causing this problem by restarting Firefox with Add-ons disabled.
To do this select Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled.
Then choose Start in Safe Mode. As you can see if this doesn't fix your problem you also have an option to Reset Firefox. This restores Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
