What version of Firefox do you have? I updated to 66.0.3 (really miss 56 now) and mine still don't work and won't update.

Found out what it was... You have to have "studies" enabled in the security options under sending data to Mozilla. I probably could have kept my old version of Firefox.

I got it, too.
Then I noticed an upgrade available - to 66.0.4, so I downloaded and installed it and everything is working as it should.
