I stopped the plug-in and now I can't do anything on Firefox?
I was on youtube and got a pop up saying that my plug-in stopped and I could continue or stop the plug-in. I clicked "stop plug-in" and now when I open Firefox, it does not let me type anything into the web browser or click on anything. Nothing is opening. How do I fix this? What happened?

Hello
Change a Firefox setting to turn these plugins back on
- In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter.
- The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear. Click I'll be careful, I promise! to continue to the about:config page.
- Search for plugins.load_appdir_plugins
- Double-click plugins.load_appdir_plugins to change its value to true.
- At the top of the Firefox window, click on the File menu and select Quit . When you restart Firefox the plugins will be enabled.
