Is there any way to import my favorites and all of the settings from my firefox on my desktop?
What's with all the extra space at the bottom of the newest version. I saw this in Thunderbird as well and I remember having to delete an old file, but would have no idea where to begin with Firefox.
I was browsing my Firefox Portable configuration settings under about:config and noticed that all of the printers that I have been using are stored there. I set the print.save_print_settings boolean to false so it will not save future printer settings, but how do I delete the settings that are already there?
Hi all!
Help me please, people: my girl-friend can't English and I'd like to find a russian language file for Firefox Portable. Is this possible?
Thanks in advance!

I'll will use the official "setup".
Thanks, John. I feared this would take a while.
Hi John! Thanks for your excellent work, as always....
I have a conundrum. Right now, AllowMultipleInstances=false in FirefoxPortable.ini means two different things at once:
1. External invocations of Firefox, e.g. from a system-installed copy, will instead open new tabs/windows in Firefox Portable so long as Firefox Portable stays running;
2. If another version of Firefox, portable or not, is currently open, Mozilla Firefox Portable Edition will refuse to start.
When I open Firefox it usually takes a while to open and then comes up with the following message before opening.
Component returned failure message: 0x80520012 (NS_ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND)
[nsIXMLHttpRequest.send]
When I open from a flash drive (I am using Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition) it hardly ever opens.
HELP!
I have the JRE on the same thumb drive as firefox portable. I was wondering if there is a way to tell firefox to look in a specific place for the jre rather than the default one.
I wanted to be able to use Portable FireFox to launch uTorrent, Foxit Reader, and other such portable apps from my drive. First I found this:
https://portableapps.com/node/1629
but I didn't want to put a copy of every portable app in the firefox directory so I tried a few things and came up with this
assuming:
PortableApps
-\FirefoxPortable
--\App
---\firefox
----firefox.exe
-\Foxit Reader
--foxitreader.exe
1. Open PortableApps\FirefoxPortable\App\firefox directory
2. create a text file named PDF.cmd
3. edit the file to contain
start "..\Foxit Reader\FoxitReader.exe" %1
