OK, so it seems that Google has no plans to upgrade the\u00a0Google Toolbar\u00a0to work with\u00a0Mozilla Firefox version 5. Which is a shame because lot’s of Internet Marketers, myself included, have got used to some of the functionality that the Google Toolbar provides.<\/p>\n

So, I invested a fair bit of time looking for a relatively easy fix.<\/p>\n

I discovered that some people are suggesting installing the\u00a0Add-on Compatibility Reporter\u00a0that allows you to use add-ons that have not yet been approved as compatible with the latest version of Firefox. Obviously, you do this at your own risk as there may be a good reason for them not to be approved.<\/p>\n

However, that didn’t work for me so I had to dig deeper\u2026<\/p>\n

There’s a very easy fix that involves editing a specific “install.rdf” file<\/p>\n

But first you need to find it. Simply follow the filepath below:<\/p>\n

C:Users | [yourusernamehere] | AppData | Roaming | Mozilla | Firefox | Profiles | [sometexthere].default<\/p>\n

You’ll find a number of different folders and each one should contain an “install.rdf” file.<\/p>\n

Open each file with a text editor and look for the following block of text and simply change whatever number is there (for example 3.6) to 6. Be sure to save the file before closing.<\/p>\n

Then all you need to do is restart Firefox and your Google Toolbar should be enabled.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
