PFF on 95
PFF does work on Windows 95 without any modifications right? Just wanted to know in case I go to a place with (gasp!) Windows 95 on the machines.

Hi, I just started using PFF and it's great. Hopefully someone can help me
I wish to avoid the known issue mentioned in the README file, which states:
----
LOCAL FILES CREATED - A directory (%userprofile%\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox) is created on the local machine (if Firefox is not installed locally) and a pluginreg.dat file is created within it. This is a limitation of Firefox itself. If you set the UserProfile directory within the INI file, this will not happen.
----
Which INI file are we talking about here? I assumed the PortableFirefox.ini file is being referenced, and I changed this line from
Greets,
Previous to the 1.5 release, we were able to change the icon that PFF uses. I am not seeing where this is doable in 1.5. Anyone have a clue where I can do this?

Hi, I got a new flash drive and I want to install portable ff and this is what I thought to do
1. Download the zip from this site
2. Unzip it somewhere in HDD (C:)
3. Install extensions because HDD access is faster than Flash drive
4. Move the whole DIR to the flash drive
Can I do that? would it corrupt something?
Thanks
I normally use PFF on a Win2000 machine at work (that does not have regular Firefox installed). It works fine. When I try to use PFF with my thumb drive on any XP machine (that has Firefox on them), it does not start up. When I installed I took the default directory structure and haven't renamed anything. Any suggestions? TIA
Off the bat, I assure you that I have followed the instructions carefully on installing the shockwave plugin...but still I am having no joy. At no point does it give me the option of choosing the browser. Now, shockwave is installed on my laptop but it is not recognized by firefox - only IE. I am running Windows XP.
Any suggestions?
i've had this before, i run the launcher program, and firefox won't load. or, more accurately, when i check the task manager the process is running, but without a window. last time i had no clue why and eventually had to reinstall it to get it working again. this time it happened right after firefox crashed, so i think thats why it happened. im trying a few differant things right now, but does anyone know a way to fix this?
I would like to add the Flash Player to my portable firefox How can I ?
I noticed that Portable Firefox breaks the Live bookmarks. Also there is another problem. I have gmail and i have the google personal page set 2 my homepage
when i startup Firefox it says sign in button, so i click it and my page shows (didn't prompt for username or password) or if i press homepage again my homepage displays properly. It only happens on pFf startup. If i press homepage toolbar button, my google personal page shows up (it does not say sign it).
It is probably a Ff issue but i only use PFf.
Hi, I'd like to use Portable Firefox to run a fullscreen presentation from my usbkey.
So as to minimize user interaction, I'd like firefox to start in fullscreen mode.
Is there a way to do this?
