Each time Firefox is refreshed, I must re-install extensions. How can I save the extensions so they do not need to be downloaded and re-installed ever time Firefox refreshes?

Each time I used Troubleshoot Mode, I had to set up Firefox as if it were a brand new app. I find it hard to believe there isn't an app or perhaps a way to backup extensions. I have some extensions that take a long time to configure with multiple inputs and links. Firefox has been around for decades. I am not trying to invent the wheel. I can't be the only one who has this issue and am surprised nobody came up with a solution. In fact, I am disappointed that Firefox's developers have ignored this hiccup.

When I find an add-on I like, I copy its web address to a folder on my system. This way, if I lose it, easy to reinstall.
