I asking a similar question before. i set Firefox Portable update settings to manual, but when launch FFP on a different PC, the update settings change to automatic (Even if the path to the profile directory is same).

Are Firefox update settings stored in the FFP directory?

fix for over sized menu spacing 6a672o

I briefly updated to the lastest version v99 or so (but made a snapshot first, and then restored after the problem described below). I'm back to running v 90.0.2 and everything is fine, I think I had to fix this once before but can't recall.

Anyway, the issue is the huge amount of spacing in the menus for the bookmark folders.

I read somewhere you can change something in file C:\s\XXX\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\XXX.default-release\chrome\Chrome.css and copy the below lines at the top.

Firefox portable won't start anymore. 5z5x4x

Submitted by sarapixit on April 2, 2022 - 7:17am

Hi,
I have this problem.
Firefox portable won't start anymore.
I have tried different versions.
I have tried installing and uninstalling firefox, but it doesn't work.

It doesn't show up in the list of running apps, so I can't terminate it.

I tried manually cleaning the windows10 registry, deleted dozens of entries and it only worked once.
On the next attempt, it won't start again.

There must be something in the windows registry blocking it, but I don't know what.

Can you tell me how to fix it?

Thanks

FirefoxPortable.exe process is terminated while updater.exe is still running 1b2g2v

Hi.
Today I noticed an unexpected behavior in Firefox Portable.
If I have the pref "app.update.staging.enabled" set to false, FirefoxPortable.exe is terminated while updater.exe is still running.

The pref description: "If set to true, the Update Service will apply updates in the background when it finishes ing them."
So, the updates are applied in the background while firefox is still running (true). Otherwise, they are applied when you restart firefox (false).

Incomplete / cancelled update 1b6vu

I run Firefox Portable on a computer that also has a normal Firefox installation. Earlier today, Firefox Portable started updating itself automatically, but I cancelled the update before it finished. Then, when I went to Settings > Firefox updates > Show update history, it was telling me that there was an update with an "install pending". So I deleted the Firefox Portable folder and installed it again, but the new installation is still telling me that there is a pending update. I can tell it's the same as before from the timestamp.

Firefox 52-x error "Access Denied You don't have permission to access...this site...on this server. Reference#... 5v5i4x

This error shows only on Firefox 52 to the newest version, and happens whenever I click to check out on some shopping websites, like Costa.co.uk and currys.co.uk.
For troubleshooting purposes, I copied my portable Firefox setup and added a gift card and filled in my email address on Costa website:
https://gifting.costa.co.uk/home/gift-card/thank-you-little-gc.aspx
I checked to check out, but the error page shows instead of allowing me to proceed to payment.
