CA-archive button disappeared, addon not usable anymore #44

Hi!

The button disappeared from the toolbar. It's not even present in the repository. There's no way to use it anymore. I'm using waterfox Some more robustness and configurability would be nice. A (configurable) hotkey, for circumstances like this, and I don't like having a button anyway for something that's rarely used and only provides a single feature. There should be definitely a button to open CAA in about:addons. Either in the main addon's list or CAA's own section.

I guess your profile has been corrupted; try to use Restore Defaults from Customize the Menu and Toolbars to recover it.

There is already the Classic Add-ons Archive item in the Tools menu for this case. You can also move the button to the "hamburger" menu.

Thanks. Though I doubt my profile is corrupted. (I wouldn't count out bugs with FF or this or other addons though)

Recently I looked into editing xulstore.json and ca-archive-button was there with the rest. I even tried moving it into a different position, but it remained invisible.
