(If you are the developer of a sideloaded extension and you are now distributing your extension through your website or AMO, please note that you will need to update both the sideloaded. Developers will be able to push updates to extensions that had previously been sideloaded.Firefox will prevent new extensions from being sideloaded.If a user no longer wants an extension that was sideloaded, they must uninstall the extension themselves. Previously installed sideloaded extensions will not be uninstalled for users when they update to Firefox 74.Starting with Firefox 74, users will need to take explicit action to install the extensions they want, and will be able to remove previously sideloaded extensions when they want to.We heard several questions about how the end of sideloading support affects users and developers, so we wanted to clarify what to expect from this change: If you are the developer of an extension that installs itself via sideloading, please make sure that your users can install the extension from your own website or from (AMO).
This installation method was typically done through application installers, and is commonly referred to as “sideloading.” Today marks the release of Firefox 74 and as we announced last fall, developers will no longer be able to install extensions without the user taking an action.
