Add-On cannot be verified. How to activate?

Hello,

since today one of my add-ons refuse to run with Firefox telling me it can't be verified and i cannot manage to ignore that and make Firefox run it anyway. So it must be due to some Firefox update changing the handling of unverified add-ons.

To the add-on: it is a self-developed add-on i really need. How can i get to run?

Thanks.

This will disable add-on signature enforcement; Enter about:config into your Firefox address bar Click the I'll be careful button Find xpinstall.signatures.required in the list Right click the preference Select Toggle until the value is false https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/add-on-signing-in-firefox

Thank you. I was trying to find a config but couldn't find the right one. Further question, maybe you can help: I saw there are also "xpinstall.whitelist.*" configs. So seems to me it is possible to whitelist a single add-on? What would i have to configure?

I don't know about that. I did find this; http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config_entries#XPInstall.
