Not working

Open Mrsash2020 opened this issue 2 years ago • 6 comments

Sorry to bring this up again. Had Win7/Win11 dual boot with both working fine pointing to profile on D drive for seamless move for a few months now. Just decided to move to Win11. Installed the latest update for firefox for Win11 and it seems to be broken again. Only thing that could be an issue as per instructions https://github.com/xiaoxiaoflood/firefox-scripts#instructions. I have copied the files to C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox, but still no joy. Keeps saying add on disabled.

Update: Ok after a few tries its showing as installed but nothing is as per my settings and I cant bring up the TMP options to edit settings etc.

Win 11 Latest firefox

Maybe it is cache issue

After you make 100% sure that you have installing latest version of userChromeJS (bootstarpLoader) properly, do the following:

  • Remove old install of Tab Mix Plus.
  • Open about:support and click "Clear startup cache…" to force Firefox to load userChromeJS on the next startup.
  • Close Firefox again (don't use restart).
  • Start Firefox.
  • Install Tab Mix Plus.

Did that and it now says addon appears to be corrupt when I try to install.

Question: You are referring to this instruction when you say installed bootstrap? 1 Download this zip file and extract its content to Firefox installation folder (usually C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox). For Linux paths, read this. And this for macOS paths.

@Mrsash2020

I'm referring to all the instructions in xiaoxiaoflood repositoty You have to follow all the instructions steps 1-6.

If you see the warning addon appears to be corrupt when you try to install, than most likely you did not install the scripts correctly. make sure that in your user profile there is chrome folder, and that it contain utils folder with this files

@onemen

Definitely followed the instructions. Its been working perfectly on the win 7 with only minor issues with win 11 rarely.

The D:\Firefox\ is the profile folder being accessed by both win7 and win 11 firefox installs so not sure why win 11 troubles me this time. Scratching my head here.

Ok spoke too soon. My bookmarks wont open from the bookmark list now. Disabling TMP and restarting works for bookmarks. Unsure what I did wrong. Any thoughts?

Mrsash2020 avatar Sep 08 '22 10:09 Mrsash2020

Do you see any messages in the browser console after you try to open your bookmarks?

onemen avatar Sep 08 '22 13:09 onemen

Sorry didnt check the console. I assume you mean Ctl+Shift+K console right?

Ok renamed each of the things I downloaded and found the culprit to be privateTab.uc.js. renamed to privateTab.uc.js.bak

I noticed they were all named *.js.html previously. Guess I wasn't using any of it so didn't notice. Yesterday when I "right clicked > Save link as" resulted in *.html files. Therefore copy pasted code in notepad and changed extension to *.js.

So tell me which way is correct please?

No. Its Ctl+Shift+j, look in Tools menu > Browser Tools > Browser console

You probably downloaded some *uc.js scripts from https://github.com/xiaoxiaoflood/firefox-scripts.

Make sure you are using the latest version of each script. If you are planing to use scripts as well as legacy extensions (Tab mix plus and other...) the you need to install utils → I'm interested in both scripts and extensions

From here the scripts save as html https://github.com/xiaoxiaoflood/firefox-scripts/tree/master/chrome From here(bottom of page with individual links) as txt files https://github.com/xiaoxiaoflood/firefox-scripts
