Heya. I did a fresh reinstall of my windows and now i have to adjust palemoon how I want again. So all I need is the LittleMoon theme and Adblock Latitude. But there are no install or download options this time? why?

Obsolete versions of Pale Moon are blocked from the addons page. Update to the latest version and stop clinging onto long dead Firefox only addons if that's the reason you're not upgrading. The popular ones have been already forked for Pale Moon, or there are other equivalents, and failing that there's plenty of instructions on how to fix the targetApplication of an addon to target Pale Moon (which is no guarantee it will suffice to work forever).

See posts here, here and here.

It's probably due to using either an older version of the browser, or else a non-official variant.

v28.13.0 is certainly no longer supported in any way shape or form.
