How to eliminate unverified addon warning bar or the unverified addons
I get (I think) the unverified addons issue.
How do I eliminate the addons or, at worst, the warning bar that appears every day. I can delete a regular addon, but once something is made unverified the delete button goes away.

Thanks to Mozilla fans who took the time to help me. 1) I need to take a deep breath. This is a small problem in the great scheme of things. 2) FredMcD - you are correct, of course. I did not mean to imply that the add-ons or their authors are bad. 3) jscher200 - You have reminded me that items on a computer can be used by more than one application. 4) cor-el - you have helped in the exceptionally difficult task of moving me to a better understanding. 5) To all, I have been a Firefox user for a long time. If this had been one of the other browsers, I probably wouldn't have cared as much

Open the Firefox SafeMode and see if the Remove button is active. Info about the Firefox SafeMode - Firefox Safe Mode
I tried this again. Still does not work. I want to elminate the addons that are not verified. There is no delete available for them.
I don't want to see the "One or more installed add-ons..." bar that requires me to click on it to make it disappear. The bar comes up every day. I cannot get rid of the add-ons. I can not make the people verfiy their add-ons. It's a frustrating distraction.
The unverified add-ons flag does not mean that it is bad. It only means the add-ons website management has not tested it.
Usually if the Remove button is missing, Firefox discovered the extension elsewhere on your system, rather than in your currently active profile folder. Because it is in a shared location, the Remove button is suppressed.
To remove the extensions from the section of the Windows registry where Firefox finds them, you may need to turn off a setting in their corresponding application software. In some cases, it may be an all-or-nothing situation where you cannot remove the extensions without completely removing the main program that installed them.
Do you want to mention their names to get more specific suggestions on how to remove them?
You can open the extensions.json file in the Scratchpad (Firefox menu button or Tools > Web Developer) to inspect the details of installed extensions. Click the "Pretty Print" button to format the file for readability.
You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:
- Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
- C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\
