Firefox Portable

Yesterday the Firefox Hotfix got downloaded and installed into my firefox portable.
Normal the installer is incompatible with firefox 30.
With an normal firefox 30 the addon is incompatible.

As i thought it will be a bug in the hotfix i created a bug on bugzilla of mozilla: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1042099

They closed the bug, as the hotfix works correctly and the bug must be in the portable version, that the hotfix doesn't recognize that it is incompatible.

Having installed FF30port over perfectly well working FF28port configurations with loads of add-ons (esp. language add-ons) for several times I am quite disappointed of what is going on:
- tabs no longer working (close buttons, width, switching between etc.)
- I never liked tabs floating over (!) the underlying tab window and covering parts of the window content
- bottom bar is missing, many of the icons vanished completely
- add-ons are disabled (even FF30 compatible ones!), enabling does not work

I have two profiles of FirefoxPortable and I'd like to combine the Bookmarks into one of the profiles. Does anyone know of a way to do this?

Thanks

I run portable firefox installed to my desktop. This is probably not specific to portable but on two occasions [today and 3 1/2 weeks ago] firefox 28 has updated to 30 after a crash. I've had "never check for updates" ticked for some months now, anyone know why this has been happening?

What I've had to do is run a manual bookmark backup from the updated firefox 30, install my most recent browser backup [28], then install that current bookmark backup [I do a lot of bookmarking and cannot afford to lose changes].

I cannot find any button to reset it like shown on the help page:

This button I mean:

How could I do it?

Or is it better to set up a new Firefox and to import bookmarks, passwords?

Hi all,

I've been using portable FF for quite a while now, and as of version 13, ran into a problem that prohibits me from upgrading. So I'm still stuck using version 12. Now some of the tools that I need to use at work don't work with versions that old.

I'm on Windows 7 x64, in a corporate environment, with an IT dept that doesn't really want to help me sort it out. Which is fair enough - they don't mind me running a portable version of the software, but don't support it - hence I'm here for some support.

Hi everybody,

My context is :
- All computers work with Windows XP or 7 and IE (8 for Win XP and 10 for Win 7).
- We have an application who can only works with Firefox.
- It’s use HTML5.
- Installing Firefox is strictly forbidden

So I would like to know if Firefox portable may be the solution.
What is the way to make it possible?

Requirements:
- Firefox Portable ESR must be only use by this application and no other.
- No Firefox file’s or .exe’s must be appears in directory

Thanks for you response.

Might I ask if anyone has had problems with the Firefox 64-bit Nightly version not working with the 32-bit version of Jportable? I have installed both in a new folder, but the 64-bit Firefox does not seem to recognize JPortable, although it works correctly with the 32-bit version of Firefox Nightly. I saw that the 64-bit version of JPortable does not work with browsers, but I wasn't sure about the 32-bit version. Thank you for the help with this, and if I can provide any more information, please let me know.

Hello, I am staying with fx 28 pending possible switch to palemoon/other, I have updates turned off. I have FX portable installed to my desktop for years. FX crashed and I impulsively decided to uncheck the "send report, page you were on" etc, restarted, and to my horror saw "update in progress" [it never did that with the send report turned on]. I closed the update window, shut the new firefox window [I knew something was up because it was asking permissions for some addons and looked different], then restarted firefox portable from my start menu shortcut. My old session came back.

When using RunLocally=true, I've encountered the following bugs:

1. It doesn't let you run Firefox Portable 2nd Profile.
2. It leaves behind %tmp%\FirefoxPortable (which contains the plugins, profile & program folders).
