Product:Safari Product Version:5.1.7 (7534.57.2)
Classification:UI/Usability Reproducible:Did Not Try
 
Summary:

After allowing Software Update to update Safari to 5.1.7, all my installed extensions disappeared.


Steps to Reproduce:

Unknown if it is reproducible.  I allowed Software Update to update Safari, and the next time I launched Safari, I saw an error message saying that my extensions were no longer valid.

However, if I reinstall the same extensions, they work fine with the current version of Safari.


Expected Results:

After upgrade, compatible extensions should continue to function, or I should be asked whether to keep them installed or discard them due to possible incompatibility.


Actual Results:

After upgrade, all extensions are uninstalled ("gone"). I have to remember what they were, find them, reinstall them, and reconfigure them.


Regression:
