Firefox Portable

Firefox's performance on my Cruzer Micro drive simply stinks. Long load time, 5 second delay after a click to see any action. Improves a bit if I go back to my 4Gb drive rather than the 8.

Does Firefox write a lot of small files to the drive while I am browsing? I am thinking I need to buy a new USB drive and wonder if I should be looking for one that has good performance writing small files.

I noticed that starting the FirefoxPortable from a usb-stick causes a lot of "IRP_MJ_WRITE" request to my stick.

Can anyone tell, to which files on the stick were changed?
Thanks.

Hey there,
thanks for the great work.

But I was wondering, why MultipleInstances is per default not possible?

I changed the FirefoxPortable.ini to allow MultipleInstances and it worked smooth and very well, even if my local Firefox was running. But is there a chance to corrupt my local Firefox-Settings or what is the reason, why I have to allow it?
Incompatibilities with previous versions?

Cheers.
Dirk

With the release of Java 6 Update 21, does this mean we will now be able to use the portable firefox browser with java pages?

Hi guys,

Anyone else noticed that when you right click on the tab to create a new app tab, although it is created without issue, the app tab is not saved when you close and re-open the browser....

Portable 4.0b1 worked fine on W2K, but Portable 4.0b2 just shows the Portable Apps splash screen and never launches - no process in the Task Manager. There's no RtlCaptureContext error message, like with the Minefield nightly's after or on 07-08. If W2K is no longer supported, there should be a notice on the download page; but I hope John is able to come up with a fix for Portable Firefox like he did here - http://johnhaller.com/jh/mozilla/windows_95/ - for Firefox 1.5.x.x.
LOL, wishful thinking on my part.

I think this is the appropriate Bug report about what is broken.

Since Firefox 3.5 apparently... damn shame I don't find out about this until my work week is over!

Trying to install FF 3.6.8, I get this error:
Error opening file for writing.
x:\PortableApps\FirefoxPortable\App\Firefox\AccessibleMarshal.dll

I re-downloaded 3.6.8 a couple of times, to make sure it wasn't a corrupted download. I am installing over 3.6.7.

If I "ignore" the file to continue the installation I get the same error for App\Firefox\LICENSE and then for README.txt, application.ini, blocklist.xml -- and that's where I aborted the installation.

I download FFp 4beta1 and I put NPSWF32.dll(the version is 10.1.53.64) in the \FirefoxPortable\Data\plugins folder but FFp doesn't recognize it.
Maybe it's a bug here?Does anyone have the same problem as I do?

PS: the real problem is : FFp 4 beta 1 can't recognize the directory which contains chinese character.

FirefoxPortable_3.6.7_PortugueseBR.paf.exe not working.
