FireFox Regular compared to Portable

Part 1: is it possible to run FF downloaded from mozilla on portable apps without having to use FF portable? cause i had an issue with FF portable crashing and i posted it as a bug on the bugzilla forums but i didnt have a talkback ID to let them investigate it from. (i was somewhat successful in doing this the only problem was i lost the settings each time i came back since i primarily use portable at school)

Part 2: So this is why i am asking it cause when you download and install FF portable it doesnt ask if you want to install the TalkBack extension.

Part 1: No, the

Part 1: No, the PortableApps.com version is a special package so that no settings are left behind on the host machine. We have special license agreements with Mozilla to be able to keep the branding.

Part 2:

It's not supposed to :P. It comes with no extensions maybe except for the DOM Inspector. The installer's just a self extracting .7z, basically. And that extension will decrease the life of your drive because it requires a lot of space reading/writing. That, and it's N-O-T the official Firefox installer }:). If John were to do so, he would probably spend more nights coding rather than sleeping Blum (Get raindrop, ease your anxiety away).
