Looking for Firefox Portable ESR 24.8.1

I'm looking for the Firefox Portable ESR in Version 24.8.1.
The filename is FirefoxPortableESR_24.8.1_English.paf.exe, but I can't find it in the Firefox Portable directory (https://portableapps.com/forums/support/firefox_portable).
There is a virus total scan on google with this filename, so I hope this version is somewhere out there.
(https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/daeac822ef7e6069dd024a285dd0fc9b620dc...)

Is there an old repository or can someone send me the file?

Not Released

24.8 and 24.8.1 were not released by us as our ESR channel had already moved on to 31.1 as per our version progression schedule for ESR: https://portableapps.com/support/firefox_portable#esr

Note that 24.x should no longer be used for anything as it is completely insecure and unsupported.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

Thanks for your quick reply.

Thanks for your quick reply. I know it's insecure and not supported anymore. I only need it for development and not in a productive way.

I use this version for development with GWT. The version 24 is the last supported version for the GWT developer plugin. Firnetuning is done with the latest version.
I also know, that there is a "super dev mode" so you can use it with the latest browsers, but unfortunately I have to work with a bunch of idiots and have to go this way.

Is there a way to update a 24.7.0 ESR installation to 24.8.1 (and not the latest version)?

Download Files

Download the standard installer for ESR 24.8.1 from http://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/24.8.1esr/win32/

Extract the files with 7-Zip Portable and replace the files within FirefoxPortable\App\Firefox. Note that we don't support doing this or a version this old.
