Can we install v2.53.1 into a new location and use a new profile without touching our old v2.49.5 to start clean? I assume our old addons won't even work in this new version since Mozilla changed its addon stuff. For now, I will try it in a VM.

I assume our old addons won't even
work in this new version since Mozilla changed its addon stuff. For now, I will try it in a VM.

Most add-ons should work fine. Themes probably need an update. Add-ons dealing with bookmarks and downloads too.

Hmm in clean SM v2.53.1b1 installation in a clean updated 64-bit W7 HPE SP1 VM, I couldn't find many addons like uBlock Origin, PrefBar, ColorfulTabs, etc. in SM's Add-ons Manager to download. Do I have to get them directly from their official web sites? FYI from my old v2.49.5 installatios:

Extensions (enabled: 6)
* ColorfulTabs 31.1.9 (http://www.addongenie.com/colorfultabs)
* DOM Inspector 2.0.17.2 (http://www.mozilla.org/projects/inspector/)
* Expire history by days [converted] 1.2.0
* Open With 6.8.6 (https://github.com/darktrojan/openwith)
* PrefBar 7.1.1 (http://prefbar.tuxfamily.org/)
* uBlock Origin 1.16.4.12 (https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock)
