Firefox Portable

[Closed] Firefox Portable 93.0 "Another instance of Firefox is already running."

Submitted by hdmi on October 17, 2021 - 12:01pm

With the AllowMultipleInstances=true in FirefoxPortable.ini (that's in my C:\FirefoxPortable folder along with the FirefoxPortable.exe file) when I try to open a 2nd instance it gives the same error popup dialog again that I also got a few months ago when I was still on a (slightly) earlier version of Firefox Portable, and that used to be fixed in an updated version until it came back as of 93.0.

Firefox randomly putting localhost into text fields

Submitted by jtravis23 on October 12, 2021 - 6:42am

I originally posted on Mozilla's help site, they referred me to here:

I'm using Firefox Portable. For some reason, in text fields, firefox will randomly "paste" (for lack of a better term) the localhost into a text field and act like it's pressed enter. It first started when I was typing, but now it can occur when I'm changing tabs and occasionally when I'm doing nothing at all. No other programs on these systems are doing this.

Linux?

Hi, I feel like a fish out of water here, surrounded on all sides by what is essentially a windows-centric site..I am a dyed in the wool user of that other OS.. Linux, ( Ubuntu).. I am here basically out of sheer frustration..There are so many iterations of portable apps for Windows and yet Linux is lacking.
In particular I have spent days searching for a portable version of Firefox that will run exclusively from a USB..
I have an Appimage of Firefox that runs , mostly from a USB, but it still insists in writing to folders in the home directory on a PC..

Firefox Portable won't print - File stuck in Spooler

Submitted by jlseber on October 6, 2021 - 1:00pm

I am currently running Firefox Portable 93.0 on Windows 10 Pro x64. For a while now (earlier versions of Firefox Portable) until now I cannot print anything from the browser. All other browsers on my system (Chrome, Edge, Brave) and regular applications print fine. I have combed the internet searching for help but not finding my specific problem. I have repeatedly stopped and started the Spooler service with no luck. Doesn't matter what content I'm trying to print, either. I would very much appreciate some help. Thanks much!
