User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; rv:22.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/22.0 (Beta/Release) Build ID: 20130618035212 Steps to reproduce: After upgrading to FF 22.0 I checked Add-Ons and found that Google Sharing was listed as OK therefore initially did nothing. Subsequently in attempting to solve the problem I uninstalled then reinstalled Google Sharing but Google Sharing is still being disabled and to my growing irritation I am constantly having to re-enable it! Actual results: Google Sharing is constantly being disabled and I am forced to re-enable only to find that when I go to a different web site or view a different email or even click on a different page of a site it is once more likely to be disabled. Expected results: Google Sharing should not be disabled unless I chose to disable it. It was not being disabled on FF 20.0! (the OS is the same Win Vista for both FF versions.)
Just scanning down to view this section caused Google Sharing to be disabled!

Not an app update bug. App update just updates Firefox's files and this would be caused by Firefox itself (likely in the core code) and not app update. Moving back to untriaged for further triage.

I never claimed that it was an add on bug. By it's very nature of no change to the app it could only be a FF 22.0 bug since it only appeared AFTER the upgrade from FF 20.0 to FF 22.0. Possibly due to FF current incorporation of certain Google features? Or so it has been reported. Please fix before I dump FF after years of loyalty! NOTE: just while adding this comment I had to reactivate Google Sharing add-on three times!
correction, reenable Google Sharing
Hi challengnow, Sorry for the late reply. We are currently looking into sorting these unresolved bugs. Are you still having this issue in newer versions of Firefox?
