Everyone:

After updating Firefox I got a message to "refresh" it--that is, remove all add-ins. Foolishly I did so, thinking to reinstall them later using compatible versions.

But I have not been able to get Video Download Helper to work.

I followed their instructions to install a "companion application." That means working in a terminal version (actually, Konsole; I'm working in KDE). The messages I get all say the companion app is ready for use. But after repeated shutdowns and restarts, VDH still will not download anything.
And that's the case for all extensions that didn't move to the
webextension format. What a killer Firefox upgrade..

FYI: https://arewewebextensionsyet.com/



Thank you! That's the best resource I could have asked for. It led to another extension that restores the most important capability I had lost.

All that remains is whether VDH will get with the program. The resource above said it had three "blocking bugs." I suppose that explains the trouble I had.
