Firefox Portable versions

Hi,

currently I run Firefox Portable 3.0.15.
Now I saw that Firefox Portable 3.5.5 has been released.
So I checked it out and it worked fine for me in my test enviroment.
After putting it to my Portable Suite it was recognized to be version 3.0.7.

Now I am a bit confused.

All versions 3.0.x were automatically updated to 3.0.y so far (f.e. 3.0.14 to 3.0.15).

But there are the versions 3.5.z as well.

Which version is the actual one?

Regards

3.5

How are you updating it? Auto-update in Firefox usually breaks it, but under the agreement with Mozilla John can't disable it.
If you have a standard root drive PortableApps setup, it should go over 3.0.7. Just run the installer again, maybe.
Oh, and next time, please, disable the auto-update. Somebody's got to do it :P.

Firefox 3.0.15 vs. Firefox 3.5.5

Hi digitxp,

first thanks for your reply.

This is what I did:
- Download Firefox Portable 3.5.5
- Run paf exe
- remove profile folder
- copy the profile folder of the 3.0.15 version

Now the version info in firefox shows version 3.5.5 but the tip
in the portable apps suite shows version 3.0.7.

Unfortuantely your comment didn't answer my main question.
Which version of Firefox Portable is the actual one?
It seems that there are two version branches.
There is 3.0.15 etc. and on the other hand there is 3.5.5 etc.

That's still confusing.
