Firefox Portable

I just found the solution to this upsetting problem, thus I am sharing the relevant information with the community.

To solve all these issues, you have to disable ESET Browser Protection for all browsers, which is the second option underneath the Enable Safe Banking & Browsing option in the ESET configuration settings.

ESET - Setup - Advanced Setup - Browser Protection - Safe Banking & Browsing - Enable Safe Banking & Browsing - Browser Protection - Secure All Browsers

32-bit and 64-bit issues and options still states:

The 32-bit version of Firefox in the Firefox directory cannot currently be removed but will in a future release.

But is it still true since 2013's Platform 27.0, which states "This version introduces the option to leave off 32-bit app support in dual architecture apps" and even name checks Firefox?

Hello John T. Haller,

I have been using Firefox Portable Version 142.0.1 for a while. Now it will not start.

The first thing I noticed was that my backup operation was having problems because it was saving information into the profile/datareporting/archive directory despite data reporting being turned off. Further complicating thing is that the archive directories and files require odd administrator access which foiled the backup and would not allow me to delete them.

Whether it is related or not, now it simply won't start up.

This is incorrect. All my Papps are loaded on a USB microSD card which is working fine. I checked I can create a text file with Explorer in Firefox Portable's folder.

Any help appreciated,

Windows 11, version 24H2, FF portable 140.0.4

As it has done before, FF started updating despite all settings against it. I interrupted it by pulling out the memory stick, but now it would not launch nagging about creating a new profile. I DO NOT WANT ANY UPDATES!!! They always carry unwanted changes forcing users to waste time restoring their settings if it's possible at all! We're aware of security risks - please respect our choices!

Sorry, but I couldn't think of a better title.

I'm currently running Firefox Portable v139.0.1. I realize 139.0.4 has been available from the platform for a few days now, but my platform doesn't "see" that my version is out of date. All other apps update just as expected.

I can probably wait unitl the next version comes out, and hope that the platform sees that my version is needing updating, but I fear it may be "stuck" for some other reason.

I´m using Firefox Portable 138.0.1 Updated from PortableApp on May 05

I want to choose when to install updates from PortableApp, but my Firefox updates automatically, and cannot change that in Tools.
When I try it shows "Firefox is being updated by another instance" . I have not idea of which "instance" is updating my Firefox.

When I try to select: "Check for updates but let you choose to install them" shows:
