With every major Firefox Update release, we have addon compatibility
issue. Firefox Extensions which I was used to were not compatible with Firefox 5 after upgrading. I tried old trick which used to let install incompatible addons on Firefox 4 but invain. Being from the curious category of people, I didn’t wanted to wait for developers to offer upgrade.
Addons, even though marked as incompatible actually work fine without any issue most of the time but for some reason Firefox doesn’t allow it. I, anyhow wanted Tab Utilities and Google Toolbar to work on Firefox 5 so, here I share my successful attempt to run incompatible addons on Firefox 5.
Download Addon Compatibility Reporter and restart Firefox to enable it. This extension was made to report Mozilla whether extensions are working without any issues with upcoming releases. For that, it lets you enable those incompatible addons on Firefox 5.
Go to Addons, you will see that some addons have Green Check mark on them and are ready to be enabled after restart.
