Firefoxportable not using the included profile

Submitted by etiger13 on August 6, 2007 - 7:13pm

I am trying to use Firefox from a CD. I got it to autorun and everything but now I am trying to get it to use the bundled Sumatra PDF portable as the default PDF reader. However, whenever I launch FFP, it grabs the profile from the Firefox installed on the machine, which happens to have Acrobat reader installed. When I am in FPP and go to the manage extensions screen, it shows all the extensions for the host Firefox, not the few that are included in FFP. How can I get FFP to use Sumatra from the CD?

Firefox leaves a trail

I've found another instance of PortableApps being not quite invisible. If you download an image using r-click in Firefox, then the image shows up in the Recent directory on the host machine (as in Start -> Documents -> list of recent documents).

Can anything be done to stop this happening?

Firefox Addons Problems

Submitted by LittleUnkn0wn on August 3, 2007 - 12:17pm

I searched to see if anybody has had similar problems, and found this, but that problem was never really answered. I'm trying to install Firesomething, IE Tab, Menu Editor, Tab Killer, Splash!, and FoxFilter. I install them, restart FF portable, and all is fine. I then configure the options to what I want, and close FF portable. Upon starting FF portable again, all addons are gone. I am currently running Windows 2000 SP4. FF portable version is 2.0.0.6 and is running on the local hard drive.

Firefox & FEBE

Submitted by PDD on August 3, 2007 - 8:36am

Hi Folks,

I have been trying to setup my Portable and Desktop FireFox to synch data with various scripts and one one issue Im having is with FEBE. I have my portable FireFox setup exactly the way I want it with extensions and settings etc. I wanted to do a full backup/export of all this using FEBE but the problem is that FEBE will not export a profile named 'profile'. As portable FireFox doesnt have a profile manager does anyone know how I can change the name of the profile so I can use FEBE and make sure my portable FireFox wil continue to use the right profile?

Regards,
