How to fix unresizeable maximised addon window
I am on Firefox Mac v42. I followed some instructions on resizing windows on El Capitain and now I have an addon window for "DownTheAll" which is maximised at full screen and has no controls to resize it.
I can move it but just not resize. Uninistall and reinstall of the addon didn't fix it so I suspect theres a window size setting somewhere in Firefox I need to fix.
Before give up and go through the hassle of creating a whole new profile, anyone got any ideas please?

You can probably close this window via "Command + W".
Try to rename (or delete) the xulstore.json file in the Firefox profile folder.
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)

Thanks for the reply.
Closing it isn't the issue, I can close it by pressing <esc>. It then asks if I want to abort the downloads and if I say yes it closes.
What I want is to resize it to normal and then be able to resize the window. I'm sure I used to be able to do this.
I will try your suggestion on the .json file.
Isn't there a resize icon visible when you place the mouse pointer at the bottom right corner?
Can you open this window via the Options/Preferences button of the extension on the about:addons page?
There are no pointers or grab handles on any of the window edges or corners - believe me I tried!
No matter how I open this window (there are several ways) it is always coming up maximised at full screen size. All I can do is drag the title bar to move it down out of the way.
I tried another addon called something like "more content in tabs" - what that does is move the window content for this addon to a tab.
This would be fine except that every time I add another download (this addon is a download manager) it adds another tab and they all run in parallel and the downloads fail - I think it duplicates the downloads with the same name in each tab.
I just want to add, this addon window used to be fine before all of this.
I think it was after following the steps in this article on Firefox that caused all the problems:
