Portability issue via GoogleDrive for Firefox portable.

Hi everyone.

I try to use my portableapps with Googledrive.
FF version: 75 64bit
I've find this problem:

PC1
PortableApps folder:
c:\Googledrive\PortableApps
Use a good copy of my firefox portable
http://pikky.net/WcW
At the end, update my copy of FF in the cloud.

Go home

PC2
PortableApps folder:
d:\PortableApps\PortableApps
Before use, update my local copy of FF from the cloud
Open FF
http://pikky.net/XcW
All my extension and settings were lost.

What wrong?

How are you starting?

How are you starting the app on both PCs?

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

File Associations?

Do you have it set as your default browser or file opener on either system?

Update:

Update:

Disable syncro with GoogleDrive on PC 2

Return in PC1

Nothing to sync from the cloud (App Google say)

RUN PAL
Ask me for update to FF 76
I say YES
I've lunch FF 76
All OK

I've sync cloud with PC1

Wait after 18pm for notice from PC2 Smile

Thanks for your attention.

Sync PC2 with cloud

Sync PC2 with cloud

Run PAL

PAL DON'T ASK ME UPGRADE LOCAL FF TO VERSION 76 (right)

All KO as above.

I've copy the PC1 FFP folder in a pen drive.
On PC2 work fine.

Is a Google sync issue?

Solved

I noticed that some files were synchronized but renamed to XXX [conflict] or (1).
So I have in PC2:
- disconnected the folder d:\PortableApps\PortableApps from synchronization
- delete d:\PortableApps\PortableApps
- recreated d:\PortableApps\PortableApps for synchronization
- synchronized the folder.
Now it seems that everything works.
