Firefox - Version Confirmation (Password Saving) - Sorted, Thanks

Submitted by RossGoodman on September 11, 2007 - 6:16am

I am seeing differences in behaviour between the "normal" install on my laptop and my PFF install on my USB drive.
Namely, my PFF is refusing to save passwords for sites.
I found an entry on mozilla support that stated there was a bug that was fixed in 2.0.0.3 (I think) so that led me to check versions.
On my laptop help about shows "version 2.0.0.6"
On my USB help about shows "version 2.0"
However on USB in Tools | Options | Advanced | Update History is states that 2.0.0.6 was successfully installed.

Any ideas?

From FirefoxPortable on Windows to Firefox on Ubuntu

Hi, I'd like to move my entire profile (not only the settings and bookmarks, but also, and expecially, the dozens of extensions I installed in PortableFirefox) on the Firefox installation that I have on Ubuntu (not portable, that is).
I tried to use the FEBE extension, but I wasn't able to select any profile to which restore the .fbu file, when it asks you for it.

Enabling Disk Caching

What would happen if the cache was set for > 0 ? Would a cache be created in the Portable Firefox directories, wherever it was located?

I run it on my hard drive in a data partition, and various C: partitions share it. I'd like to enable the cache to speed it up.

I also keep a synchronized copy on a thumb drive.
