Portable FF running on internal hard driveBlueandwhitearmy - June 17, 2009 - 2:39pm
Hello everybody. Apologies in advance for a rather basic query. My Grandparents have been having a few problems with IE on their Desktop PC. I was planning to download portable firefox so they can see whether they get on with FF any better before eventually doing a “proper” install of the program. I wasn’t going to use the launcher, just run portable FF off the internal hard drive of the PC with a shortcut on the desktop. I just wanted to double check that using portable Firefox this way over an extended period of time was ok and wouldn’t cause any problems? Thanks ( categories: )

I've done that with no problem. That's why portable programs are better. no fuss, no muss.

Yes, you can run it from the hard drive with just a shortcut to FirefoxPortable.exe. It won't affect your system.
