Firefox Portable

Upgrading

Submitted by ppps on June 24, 2010 - 5:18am

Actually this is not part of the FAQ, so bear with my question.

I was happy with FF portable 3.5.9. where I run 50+ add ons without problem. I then decided to upgrade to 3.6.3. Here is what I did:

1. Make a safe copy of FirefoxPortable to FirefoxPortable 3.5.9.

2. Unzip the firefox portable 3.6.3. and dump it to the existing FirefoxPortable folder

Bad update - for real this time?

I got a notice telling me to upgrade firefox and restart, but after that, attempting to run it only brings up the preloader graphic. I tried installing firefox on another USB drive to see if it's just the computer, but the newly installed one worked fine.

So is this recoverable? And if it isn't, how can I move my stuff to a new copy of firefox portable without also copying the bug?
