is it possible to edit/modify the firefox addons after installing?

Question

Is it possible to modify/edit, already installed firefox addons? Where are the addons stored in the computer... I mean which folder etc...

Answer 1

It is possible to edit the files. Its simple to find the folder path.

• Open the Help menu from the browser top menu
• select Troubleshooting Information option. The Troubleshooting Information tab will open.
• Under the Application Basics section, click on Show Folder. A window with your profile files will open.
• Open the 'extensions' folder in there.

you should find all the extension files in here. Your extension could be a .xpi file which is nothing but a zip file. copy it to a different folder and rename it to .zip. Unzip it and browse the content in it. Hope this helps.
