Firefox dropping support of older CPUs

Submitted by Freehunter on August 6, 2016 - 9:47pm

Just a heads up for those still using older PCs. Mozilla Firefox is dropping support for PCs that don't have SSE2.

If you are not sure about your PC, you can check with https://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/cpu-z-portable

In the 48.0 release notes, https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/48.0/releasenotes/

Is there a non-portableapps version of Firefox ESR?

Submitted by gwt10 on August 6, 2016 - 6:49pm

The reason I ask is that I tried to install this version from your website and got a failed warning. I guess apparently I need the portableapps platform to go with it, but I can't install it on an old encrypted IronKey USB stick.

Can somebody point me in the right direction for FF portable builds?

Thank you.

Sticky version update notification thread

It would be a Good Thing [TM] if there were a "sticky" message listing the current version of FP which was updated when a new version was released. That way we could subscribe to that and get notified about new releases without having to check the FP page for updates.

This would in fact be a Good Thing [TM] for all PAs with support fora.

Question about updating Firefox portable

Hi,

I have Firefox portable version 45 on my windows laptop. Now I want to update to version 47 portable.

But it appears that there are two ways to update, and I don't know which one is right:

1) The build-in update possibility inside Firefox by selecting menu button / ? / About Firefox as it's described here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/update-firefox-latest-version

or...

Looking for Firefox Portable ESR 24.8.1

Submitted by Sprengbirne on July 5, 2016 - 8:05am

I'm looking for the Firefox Portable ESR in Version 24.8.1.
The filename is FirefoxPortableESR_24.8.1_English.paf.exe, but I can't find it in the Firefox Portable directory (https://portableapps.com/forums/support/firefox_portable).
There is a virus total scan on google with this filename, so I hope this version is somewhere out there.
