Just upgraded to Waterfox 14.0.1 and suddenly Adblock Plus is not working, the icon is nowhere to be found, and it was not blocking banner ads. I uninstalled it and attempted to reinstall it, but there is an error with the download, I have checked firewall permissions and everything else, but it refuses to download. Any ideas what to do?

Have you disabled addon compatibility checking ?

Just found this addon that claims to do it for you

https://addons.mozil...kcompatibility/

or manually from about:config

extensions.checkcompatibility

Reinstall Waterfox / delete old profile ?

    • I think you need to adjust your style of approach. While some were affected by performance issues, and it's not a huge gap... you're acting as if Ryzen couldn't handle 11 at all. Performance issues are purely based on some facts in certain scenarios, while others are not. I see one link with a handful of people discussing the topic. I didn't join those topics or seek them out myself, as I didn't encounter noticeable drops in performance going from 10 to 11. It might also have to be because I don't have my nose stuck up the butt of single digit percentage points. I don't benchmark my PC every time something new comes out. Single percentage point differences in performance only ruffle the feathers of those that don't care about daily use. If you have a race car, do you compare that to your daily driver? Do you expect your Honda Accord to break the 9 second quarter mile like your 1000HP Pontiac Firebird? If you're so worried about FPS instead of enjoying your games... perhaps opening a curtain in your basement might provide a new perspective in life.
    • Currently updating my Win10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021 in a VM (QEMU/KVM) on Linux. but damn, updates take forever (makes me appreciate the lightness on Linux all the more). to give you a general idea... this update finished at 37 minutes into system uptime and I would estimate updates have been running roughly 20-30 minutes (some of this would be download time, but even subtracting that I would guess that 20-30min is close). granted, I only got two cores of my four core CPU (i5-3550) dedicated to the VM. but still, Linux wipes the floor with Windows in this regard.
    • It's disgusting that this exists and is being marketed by Neowin as a way to earn passive income. Support real writers and real arts. The world needs them more than ever. After at least 10 years, Neowin can GTFO my favorites bar.
    • It doesn't have to be "interesting" for a script/bot to just copy everything it finds and rehost it on another site. I hope you remember your post when AGI replaces not only your job and your career, but you entirely in the workforce...
