System add-ons are a method for shipping extensions, considered to be
built-in features to Firefox, that are hidden from the about:addons UI.
To view your system add-ons go to about:support, they are listed under "Features"
Some system add-ons have no on-off prefs. Instead you can manually remove them. Note that app
updates will restore them. They may also be updated and possibly restored automatically (see 0505)
