Is it normal that Firefox Portable doesn't load plugins when I click on .url files?

Is it normal that Firefox doesn't load plugins when I click on .url files and also loads a separate website history and download history?
Is there a way to make so that firefox doesn't do that?
Sadly, I can not remove my plugins because they're really important.

"Open links in new tabs instead of windows" +1 more doesn't work

Submitted by stfnsn on September 9, 2019 - 2:16pm

Hi,
I just installed FF and configured everything (sync, bookmarks, plugins...) and everything works except two options:
- "Open links in new tabs instead of windows"
- "When you open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately"

First option is UN-checked but even so it works. I disabled that option but for some reason links keeps opening in new windows insted in new tabs.

Second option is UN-checked as well but browser just keeps switching me to new tab (window) when I open it.

I don't know how many time Firefox was trying to update even with the option auto update off (It change by itself sometime I don't know) so if it better for an app in PA.c format to not update by itself; then why not renaming App/Firefox/updater.exe by updater.exe-Disabled for being sure that firefox does nothing behind our back? Because it is happenning too many time this kind of case for me.

Crashed Firefox Port App

Submitted by scoob on July 15, 2019 - 2:28pm

My old version of Firefox Portable App crashed; it asked to send a 'crush report' but the bottoms don't have characters below it; the crush message that comes up when I run the *.Exe file it said that if win try to restart and load my open tabs but, Nothing happened.
How can I get my Tabs Session back? I would like to update to the latest portable Firefox release but, I am afraid by doing so, I may override the possibility of getting my opened tabs from the previous time Firefox portable worked before, given me this error.
Thanks for any advice.

Firefox Portable Appdata/Roaming redirect

Submitted by BYDS on July 14, 2019 - 11:56pm

Hi all,

I'm not the most techiest person but am the go to at my workplace as I'm the youngest so apologies if this is a straightforward question.

There is a file that a Firefox extension pulls from AppData/Roaming. I am trying to get the Firefox Portable to pull from the USB instead from the computer, so a redirect of sorts. I thought this may be the answer https://portableapps.com/node/17637 but was not able to find any straight forward way to implement this.

Updating Firefox Portable makes it not portable?

Submitted by Esanik on July 12, 2019 - 3:03pm

Every time I start FF Portable 67, I get nagged that an update is available. As others have noted, there doesn't seem to be an easy way to stop this nagging. If you give in and let the auto updater update it, does the program retain its portable nature or does it become not portable anymore, writing to your system drive instead of only using the Portable folder?

I have an SSD that I am hoping to prevent from wearing out too soon, so don't want writes to my C: drive.
