Firefox Portable

Is there some way to download some of the more popular plugins (flash, shockwave) all at once? My situation is one in where I am restricted to run .exe and find it difficult to use Universal Extractor to get it from the flash player installer. The hard part is actually downloading the .exe from there main site. If not, thats ok.

Also, I got the latest release of FireFox Portable, and in the plugins folder, there are new plugins?

npnul32.dll
npqtplugin2.dll
npqtplugin3.dll
npqtplugin.dll
nsIQTScriptablePlugin.xpt
QuickTimePlugin.class

Just ran the new version update, tried to restart and nothing happens.
How do I fix this????

Hello everyone,

is there a one-click-solution for transferring the profile settings (including bookmarks, extensions, passwords etc.) from my local installation of Firefox to Firefox Portable (on my USB-Flash-Stick) and back? I would like to keep profile data of both Firefoxes synchronized.

I haven't found any clue in the FAQ nor via searching the boards, although I assumed my request to be covering a commonly desired feature.

I would be glad to receive some advise.

Thanks a lot!

there is 2.0.0.3 at mozilla.com, but my previous version says 'there's no update' when check for updates.. any idea?

I have just installed the 2.0.0.2 version and find that it is still slow [like with ver 1.5] on downloads. I'd be interested to know why this is? It seemed to get stuck when i set it [in options] to download to a hard disk folder. Seemed to be better with the option of choosing a drive/folder to download to.

For ver 1.5 it was recommended to use the Statusbar addon [think! from memory].

It would seem FireFox doesn't like large downloads - i switched to IE earlier today to download XAMPP. But it was still slow i feel with some pdfs of 350k.

Does FirefoxPortable use the hosts file located on the PC, like any other browser, or is there one located within the application folder?

I'm having trouble getting the portable edition of firefox working on an additional flash drive of mine. I'm currently using the portable apps suite to manage programs, and have tried several methods of install.

1) If I try to use the portable apps menu, or simple run the .exe, the install haults at 44% and locks up.

2) If I run the .exe and install to a local directory on my hard drive and then move the FirefoxPortable directory onto my flash drive, firefox operates extremely sluggish.

I assume there is a compatibility issue present in how 2gb flash drives work?

I've tried installing Flash into my Portable Firefox. I followed this link:

https://portableapps.com/u3support/firefox_for_u3#plugins

but it did not work. I did get the yellow bar mentioned in the article but it indicated that I was being blocked from downloading. I re-set Firefox to allow downloads from both fpdownload.macromedia.com and macromedia.com (as well as portableapps.com). However whenever I click on the link now nothing happens, the plugin does not install. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

... what is Mozilla going for? Just having released 2.0.0.2 a few weeks ago there is already a new version 2.0.0.3 (+1.5.0.11) out. What is that good for?

I always get errors when I install more than two extensions at one time (without closing firefox once).
I could install one, but next extension returns error always.

How can I install many firefox extensions at burst.
