You are looking in the correct place so the fact that uBlock Origin is not listed under the heading 'Enabled' implies you do not have it installed.

As another check, look in the top right of your Firefox window, near the 'hamburger' icon, if you have uBlock Origin installed you should see an icon that looks like a red shield that has 'UO' on it.

Thanks there is nothing there. Something is stopping me and maybe Hans hit on it. Thanks again.

Thanks Hans. I found in the settings of Malwarebytes how to disable that if I have to. Seems to get to that settings I have open Malwarebytes and not deal with the extensions.

Also I found the machine I installed uBlock Origin on and it was not this one.

Thank you both for your help.

These are what I see in my Firefox. Are you sure that you have uBlock Origin installed?

Thanks and apparently I don't have it installed on the machine I use the most.
