Addons automatically re-enable themselves

I want to disable some addons to debug a problem with opening Slack in Firefox (works in private mode, doesn't work with my profile). I have four addons installed, and when I disable any of them, it will automatically be re-enabled after some seconds. How can I stop that?

Chosen solution

I would recommend trying Firefox from Mozilla. Just sync all your info to the new Firefox and see if you have the same issue.

Not sure what you mean - download Firefox directly from Mozilla instead of relying on the package of my Linux distribution? I'm on Firefox 95.0.2 on NixOS by the way.

You can have both. I have 5 versions of Firefox plus my distro version. Just download it to a folder, unzip it, extract the tar, and then run it.

I upgraded to 96.0 and the problem is gone. Thank you!
