Firefox Portable

I'm using the portable version of Firefox. If I were to install the non portable version on my desktop what would I have to do to transfer my portable version settings to the desktop installation?

There is a little problem with Windows 7.
The quick launch has been merged with the task bar. Or the task bar has been merged with the quick launch. Who knows?

Anyway, the task bar now looks and works like the quick launch. But with the difference that the shortcut button, after the program launched, now acts like the task bar. Maybe I better use some pictures...

You can "pin" applications to the taskbar. Basically what the quick launch did. (No application is running at this point)

New applications are not being added to options/applications - is that a general bug or something which might be related to the portable version?

Hi @ll,

today I've downloaded firefoxprotable and extraced it on my notebook.

It runs fine up to now but: how can I change language-setting to german?
I do not talk about preferred site-language but about the language of al of Firefox' menues and dialogues.

any help ios appreciated.

Hello,

I'm trying to use Firefox portable for a backwards reason that it was probably designed. I want to put it on a network drive and allow multiple people to access it at the same time. The first person can launch the program with no problems. Each person thereafter will get this error:

"Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you much first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system".

Any thoughts?

Not sure why this would be happening, but I put the FFP in the Shared documents folder along with WallpaperSwitcher and when I run FFP logged in as the Limited user, it gives me a popup first that it can't do read/write functions, and then it runs. Logged as Admin it is fine.

When I was first using FFP 3.1BETA2, it wouldn't go to the home page. I had to manually click the homepage. I reinstalled with FFP 3.01b and I get the same message, but then when I click okay it loads up the homepage.

Running on a WinXPsp3 on a dell, if it matters.

I've read some stuff about Firefox running slowly or freezing during page loads and such, so part of this may be old news.. but I'm actually getting freezes while it's NOT loading pages... For example, I'll be reading a page and scroll down. Firefox might freeze in mid-repaint. Now, anything that accesses the flash drive also freezes (read or write) and I can't kill the task via Process Explorer.

I don't know if FireGPG works completely yet with Firefox Portable (I'm still testing), but This blog entry (which is really just a screen shot) shows one way to manage the setup, using a {$FXFolder} variable to point to GnuPG and the GNUPGHOME, whether they are located in CommonFiles or under Thunderbird Portable.

Sorry, I know syncing FFP with local copies has been covered in the past but my question is slightly different. I'm very new to Linux, so I obviously can not run FFP exclusively from a flash drive. I have a virtual machine running windows but don't want to rely on it (I can however access my portable apps within it).

Is there an easy way to copy my FFPE settings to my installed local Linux copy (by settings I am referring to bookmarks, add-ons, themes, etc).
