I used Ccleaner v 2.21.940 to perform a system restore on a certain machine. The Mozilla Firefox 3.011 addons were installed a month ago. I had chosen a last week date where the system had generated a restore point but no software had been installed recently. To my surprise, all addons disappeared! I am being forced to install them back again. I am not sure if I had used the computer default System restore this wuld have happened. Please check on this

Hi frank.
I think you may have misunderstood the function of the System Restore feature in CCleaner. It's purpose is only to delete System Restore points, not to activate a System Restore:

It isn't a problem to reinstall FF extensions thankfully, as there isn't a way to get that restore point back I'm afraid.
