my mozilla metamask extention has gone blank
my metamask wallet has gone blank, and i cant log in or do anything with it as the UI shows nothing, most times its not a problem but my seed phrase from that wallet seems to be gone now as well. i dug into the extension files to find my vault file but its compressed in snappy from and i cant read it to pull my seed phrase that way. i cant just delete and reinstall the add on or i lose the seed phrase file. i have tried deleting cashe and restating nothing works, any help or ideas is appreciated i would hate to lost the crypto in that wallet

Delete all extensions* files and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.
