Firefox Portable For Overseas Virtual Assistant

Submitted by menumba1 on February 13, 2018 - 7:12am

Hi

I’ve seen Firefox Portable setups where I could download it and then once i opened it up, it would have me login to a proxy, and then I could have access to online accounts that were logged in with user names and passwords filled in.

I wanted to set this up so I could have my VAs work on my Instagram accounts without giving them the actual login information. I’d also want to block access to certain pages so that they couldn’t alter the login and steal the account from me.

Is there a video tutorial or online tutorial oh how to set something like this up?

Split Mozilla Firefox into 32 and 64 Bit

Submitted by Drazick on February 12, 2018 - 5:47am

Hello,

Could you please split the Firefox into 32 Bit and 64 Bit products?

I will explain my reasons:
1. It allows running 2 instances (Which doesn't share sessions) in parallel (32 and 64, I used that daily in Chrome).
2. It will make each package smaller both on the HD and downloading (Downloading above 70MB from SourceForge isn't fast).

I know there is issue which one to set as the default.
I'd say the 32 Bit.

To the least, could you let download 64 Bit only version?

Thank You.

Hi all,
I have been using Firefox Portable for years, but I haven't had this happen before, and I couldn't find any solutions. I usually download each and every update using the normal Firefox update process. I did the same thing this time, closed the browser, and tried to open it again using the FirefoxPortable.exe, but I am getting this error:

Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition, cannot be started. You may wish to reinstall to fix this issue. ERROR: firefox.exe could not be found

Firefox portable and regular installed version together - possible?

Submitted by XVWWVX on February 5, 2018 - 2:41am

Hi

Is it possible -without issues- to have a regular installed Firefox instance and a portable Firefox too, on the same Windows instance? tl;dr I want to use Firefox as normal, and that's no issue, but now -that Quantum is so different- I also want to have a pre-Quantum Firefox (56.0.2) available for one specific site with one specific add-on that is no longer supported and is a must for me. (Please don't suggest alternatives, it has to be the final Firefox before Quantum!)

I can only foresee two potential issues;

The letter of the drive

So, this one is funny.
I create a new virtual machine with Windows 10 x64 updated (1709). Then I download the FirefoxPortable_57.0.4_English.paf.exe file and install it right on the desktop.
I enter that folder and create a new text file, rename it as aa.bat. Right click, Edit. And add these four lines:

start C:\Users\kanu\Desktop\FirefoxPortable\FirefoxPortable.exe
pause
start c:\Users\kanu\Desktop\FirefoxPortable\FirefoxPortable.exe
pause

This happens in many posrtableApps folders as well, such as skype or filezilla. I have my portable apps on box cloud so that i can access them from several PCs. thanks for any help
