Firefox Portable

Mysterious phenomenon on a Asus VivoBook S (Windows 10 Pro Version 1709, Build 16299.309, up to date, BIOS up to date): Firefox Portable - no matter which version, no matter which user profile - doesn't start. It pops up briefly and then closes again immediately. Not even a safe start (= with activated shift key) is possible. Permanently installed Firefox works fine, other portable apps - including browsers like Chrome, Opera, Maxthon, Seamonkey, Quipzilla - too. No problems on other laptops (Acer, Toshiba, HP).

At first, I thought this was another instance of FF opening up due to the default GUI that opened until I figured out what was happening.

There is a problem with this other 'Profile' folder being created, buried in the 'Users" folder running Win7. It is not a duplicate of the customized folder within the actual program folder, but just a 'default' profile folder that doesn't get updated when the regular profile changes (add ons, etc).
There are 3 folders (only one seems to have data in it) buried in that annoying 'Users' folder in Windows (W7 specifically).

I want to put the Firefox PortableESR folder on my desktop and use it.
It works without problems, but is this usage problematic?

Please excuse my poor English.

When you start the installer, "Portable Portable folder" is created.
I'd like to change the settings, archive it and redistribute it to customers, are there any problems?

Please excuse my poor English.

Why is it my Ffx v56.02 keeps updating?
I have v56.02 installed and do NOT want to update to the completely useless newer versions that are unable to use plugins.
This version has been set as my default app and is 'installed' on an internal HDD.

It all started with the new v57 updating the app folder and resetting the toolbars.
Despite NEVER actually updating this version!!!

Hi

I’ve seen Firefox Portable setups where I could download it and then once i opened it up, it would have me login to a proxy, and then I could have access to online accounts that were logged in with user names and passwords filled in.

I wanted to set this up so I could have my VAs work on my Instagram accounts without giving them the actual login information. I’d also want to block access to certain pages so that they couldn’t alter the login and steal the account from me.

Is there a video tutorial or online tutorial oh how to set something like this up?

Hello,

Could you please split the Firefox into 32 Bit and 64 Bit products?

I will explain my reasons:
1. It allows running 2 instances (Which doesn't share sessions) in parallel (32 and 64, I used that daily in Chrome).
2. It will make each package smaller both on the HD and downloading (Downloading above 70MB from SourceForge isn't fast).

I know there is issue which one to set as the default.
I'd say the 32 Bit.

To the least, could you let download 64 Bit only version?

Thank You.

Hello, i want to use my own build of firefox with your launcher.
Unfortunately when I replace your firefox with my own, it continues to run directly but gives error 0xc000007b through the launcher.
I'm assuming that launcher are checking the signatures of exe files? any advice?

Hi all,
I have been using Firefox Portable for years, but I haven't had this happen before, and I couldn't find any solutions. I usually download each and every update using the normal Firefox update process. I did the same thing this time, closed the browser, and tried to open it again using the FirefoxPortable.exe, but I am getting this error:

Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition, cannot be started. You may wish to reinstall to fix this issue. ERROR: firefox.exe could not be found
