User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; rv:55.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/55.0 Build ID: 20170824053622 Steps to reproduce: I need to be able to load Java JRE, so I set plugin.load_flash_only to false. This works well in Firefox 54.0.1 I updated Firefox from 54.0.1 to 55.0.3. Actual results: Java and Silverlight plugins are not displayed in about:plugins and they are not loaded when needed by webpages, as if plugin.load_flash_only was set to true. Expected results: Java JRE and Silverlight should appear in about:plugins

What information is needed ?
Sorry, the plugin.load_flash_only pref is no longer officially supported in Firefox >= 53. Java and Silverlight are not expected load.
