Firefox Portable

shouldn't firefox open help links in open browser window instead of try to start new one!?

sadly the use as system default not working anymore.
so clicking on the links in apps generally not working and most anoying in the last menu with all the links to devs help sites, for translators, etc.
had to change the system link to it or change it in system.
the few ideas in forum are very around the corner and huge.
hope i find the simpliest old trick working since ever.

Maybe it's a general issue, but it seems to happen especially with Firefox.
Some of their updates are critical yet it can take more than a week between the time PA writes "mirroring..." until they're downloadable.

Even more so, Firefox is very intrusive in promoting new releases. So this means constantly shutting off their notifications for over a week.

Hello,

I created a general topic in case someone else has noticed (or will notice in the future) an issue with download for another language or future version, due to NOK download link.

For me the problem occurs with Firefox 134.0, Polish language version. Not able to download via PortableApps.com update app or via link on PA project page, I get error connecting with „downloads.sourceforge.net”. PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR

Thanks in advance for looking into that!

p.s. direct download from SourceForge works well

Hello!

I have a Portable Firefox and I would like to export that Profile with all his History, Bookmarks, Credentials and so on to my Android 13 Phone.

Kind regards

Hi,

the FirefoxPortable.exe in the folder causes the message "Firefox is already running but is not responding" when clicking the firefox icon to open a second firefox window. I "fixed" this problem copiing an old FirefoxPortable.exe in the folder.

LastVersion=133.0.3_20241209150345/20241209150345
LastOSABI=WINNT_x86_64-msvc

This was the old portable app
WizardVersion=3.7.5.0
PackagingDate=2023-07-11
PackagingTime=10:33:05
InstallerVersion=3.7.5.0
InstallDate=2023-07-22
InstallTime=14:48:07

Thank you

I just started up Firefox portable ESR and noticed that sync wasn't working after further investigation it seems it's respecting group policy and it's writing to the registry. If it's doing that then I don't see what the point of it it? It's not a portable app. It should only write settings locally to the same directory and never to the registry. It should not respect GPO policies, Intune, etc.

Will Firefox 133.0 .3 be released soon?

Launching Firefox 2nd Profile, it uses the same profile folder as the 1st profile. Now I can't have multiple Firefox using different profiles.

Hello,
I wonder if it is possible to use environment variables in path name in the FirefoxPortable.ini file, for instance %username%, %appdata%.
There are several profiles on the family PC and I would like to save each profile datas in the specific %appdata% directory.

I tried to set the "ProfileDirectory=" in the FirefoxPortable.ini file that way :
ProfileDirectory=..\..\..\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\FFdirectoryName\Data\profile
... but it didn't work.
