As of May 3, 2019, several of my add-ons have stopped working and cannot be updated or reinstalled. I have the newest version of Firefox which was supposed to fix this issue. The ones which can not be fixed are: Menu Wizard, Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon, Hide Tab Bar With One Tab, New Add-on Bar, New Old Menu, and Password Exporter. There are a few others which I have sadly replaced with other add-ons. I am most upset about losing Menu Wizard which allowed me to personalize my pull-down menus and context menus and Adblock Plus Pop-up Addon.

Are those addons listed on the addons.mozilla.org page? From which version did you update?

S-3 Menu Wizard for Firefox 56 and prior is available here: https://legacycollector.org/firefox-addons/508352/index.html

There's never been a Quantum 57-plus version of S-3 Menu Wizard and the Legacy version was pulled from the Addons.Mozilla.Org website with all the other Legacy extensions a few months ago.

Sad day for Firefox. I was still using version 56 and stupidly updated. If I go back to V 56, I lose a lot of add-ons that no longer have compatible versions available. If I stay with version 66, I lose the listed add-ons which I also loved. Maybe it is time to leave Firefox for another browser. :(

So one legacy extension you miss is Menu EditorWizard. What are the other ones?

I managed to find replacements for the others and am hoping they work as well. But, the above list has no replacements that I have found (except for the pop-up blocker).

There is no popup blocker extension to install as Firefox has had a built in popup blocker since forever. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/pop-blocker-settings-exceptions-troubleshooting
