Hi! I know why these errors occur. THe logic is that I download .xpi file, expand the manifest from it and parse it to get the ID. "browser_specific_settings": {
"gecko": {
"id": "[email protected]",
"strict_min_version": "57.0"
}
},As you may see the structure is A little bit later I may rewrite the code for your extensions to make it work. For example |

Hello again, @farag2
I'm trying to add some extensions using the Add-Firefox-Extensions.ps1 and some errors are happening. Could you please help me to make it work?
So I added the following lines at the end of the script:

The extensions with errors are not being installed. Am I doing something wrong?
Also, Configure-Firefox.ps1 opens some extension pages already included in Add-Firefox-Extensions.ps1.
I really enjoy the scripts.
Thanks in advance.
