Toolbar button WebExtension not working in FireFox 45.7.0

Hi

I have created a toolbar button. It is working fine on my laptop running FF 48. However, I am unable to add it to the toolbar in my friend’s system running FF 45.7.0. Nothing happens when I click Load Temporary Add-on button on the about:debugging page.

I have followed the procedure given here.

Is this the compatibility issue? Or something else?

Please advise.

Do you really want/need to support Firefox 45 with your WebExtension?
FF45 only has very basic support for some of the APIs, there is a lot still missing.
And FF45 won’t even be ESR for much longer.
Unless it’s some kind of cooperative laptop, just tell him to update his browser.

Thanks Nilkas. Just wanted to be sure before asking him to update.

And yes, it is a corporate laptop with some restrictions. But this reason must be good enough.
