1580535 - YouTube download add-ons do not to work anymore

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(WebExtensions :: Developer Outreach, defect, P3)

Description

[Bernie Verhaeghe]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.12; rv:69.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/69.0

Steps to reproduce:

I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, disabled and re enabled the add-ons, and rebooted my Mac, but no matter which YT downloader I choose, none of them show up as an extension next to the search bar or within YT like they used to.

Actual results:

The add-on "YouTube Video Download" stopped working, so I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, as well as installing various YT download add-ons, but none of them will work.

Expected results:

The add-on should display next to the search bar or within YT.

Hi,

I have managed to reproduce this issue on latest FF release 69.0 and latest Nightly build 71.0a1 (2019-09-15) using Mac OS X 10.14 and Windows 10.

Further, I will move this over to a component so developers can take a look over it. If this is not the correct component please feel free to change it to an appropriate one.

Thanks for the report.

Please report this to the developer of the extension. If they determine this is an issue in Firefox we can take a look.
