Firefox Portable

Will the 2nd Profile version be updated to 57?

Submitted by mertzi on November 29, 2017 - 8:22am

Hello. I don't want to update my main Firefox installation yet because several add-ons I use are legacy without replacements. But I'd like to segue to FF 57 and instead of creating a new Portable Apps directory it would be nice to use a 2nd profile installation in my regular PA directory for the transition. I know I can use the beta but betas are betas.

Have a nice day!

Is it ipossible to launch the "Desktop Firefox" and Portable Firefox (52.2.0) in the same time?
If I start "Desktop Firefox" then I start Portable Firefox I get an error message pop up:
"Another instance of Firefox is already running. Please close other instances of Firefox before launching Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition"
Is there a solution?

Okay to Delete Firefox 32-bit from Portable Apps Folder?

Submitted by Abraxian on November 26, 2017 - 5:44pm

I have Firefox v57.0 "installed" as a portable app. In the "App" folder there is a "Firefox" folder and a "Firefox64" folder. I only ever use the 64-bit version so is it possible to completely delete the "Firefox" folder? It's kind of strange in a way. The "Firefox" folder contains 113 files. The "Firefox64" folder contains 112 files. What is the extra file in the "Firefox" folder?
