Firefox Portable

What's the status on the Firefox portable beta builds?
The .paf builds are several versions out of date.
Will development resume, or will users have to resort to using Firefox's native updating feature?

I've attempted updating through the in-client method, but for some reason the update makes Firefox very crash prone with resource use through the roof.

-Can i update firefox portable directly from inside the program or do i need to download the latest version every time, and migrate my data there?

-Also if i change the name of the folder will it create a mess? I mean lets say the Folder is called FirefoxPortable, and i change it to FirefoxPortable20. Will everything still be the same?

To prevent a few tears, be aware that...

Free Download Manager plugin 1.5.7.6 is incompatible with Firefox 20.0

I use Plain Old Favorites add-in for Firefox on my desktop and think it is Fantastic. This add-in works when installed on the PortableApps version of Firefox, however; it still points to the Favorites shell folder on the hard disk.

Does anyone know a way to get this add-in to point to a folder on the flash drive where the other PortableApps are located?

Any idea how to open pdf files in current firefox so it is open with the adobe pdf reaader and not with the firefox own pdf viewer?

The adobe pdf is installed on the host machine in its current version, the plugin is also listed in the plugin list.

However when a link with pdf is opened, the pdf document attempts to open in the firefox own pdf viewer which unfortunately makes many pdf files just a whipe page.

There are some cases when Firefox initiates a restart:
1. Updating Fx prompts to restart it
2. Installing non-jetpack add-ons requires browser restart to run them
3. There are some add-ons like "restart button" that add a button that restart firefox upon clicking it.
4. Crash causes crash reporter to pop-up. Crash reporter always fails to submit a report and suggests to choose 1 of 2 actions: either close Firefox or restart it. User may choose to restart it.

In all the above cases firefox will restart without firefoxportable.exe, which will make it run in non-portable mode.

Dear all,

Is there a way to disable the FirefoxPortable plugin check, say by using the FirefoxPortable.ini file? Sometime, a plugincheck page will be displayed when the FFP is fired up.

I have trawled thru the PortApps forum to find the down load of Firefox portable -- without success.

One down load was offering an "installer". Do I need an installer?
Can I move my current bookmarks to the portable version?

I want to use FFox portable on my laptop.
(I have major probs with installed FF since Jan and getting no solutions on the FF forums)

Any help appreciated.

I will post this here, although it appears to also apply to Thunderbird as well. When running either PortableApps Firefox, and/or Thunderbird on my openSuSE 12.2 Linux machines, I am seeing a very high CPU usage as reported by TOP. Memory seems fine, swap seems fine, and I don't see this issue when running either Firefox or Thunderbird native. I might suspect this is a Wine issue but I do not see other PortableApps using high amounts of the CPU... Thoughts? I see lots of similar problems being reported throughout the internet, but no common thread or solution...

Firefox 19.0.1, but what's up with this...?
