John I made that adjustment right after install and the browser would crash at random times. Changed it back and it seems to have stabilized. Therefore I'd recommend not changing browser.tabs.remote, or changing it back to default if you start getting random crashes.

Worked Here 1a3r2z

It worked here when I tried it, but it's going to have issues and your install is a different version of mine since it's a nightly build. , nightly builds will have something working one night but broken the next. It's the joys of using pre-alpha software (read: it might randomly catch fire).

Updating Nightly Portable? 66m5y

I wonder, how would I keep Nightly Portable updated?

Same as Local 2669u

You can run the internal updater. Or just reinstall (the equivalent of ing an updater version and installing). We don't release a new package for every single evening. Note that it may be out of date at the moment due to the reasons listed in the site header banner.

Thanks for that note. I 1u4042

Thanks for that note. I personally have found the updater to not pick up updates for Nightly. But as the installer is an online one (as in, it s the latest version from Mozilla), it should work.

I would say releadates for nightly at each version change (like update from Alpha 1 Pre to Alpha 2 Pre) would be the most ideal.

Update 722e3v

They've been updated to 28/29, so the s are working again.

Confused :/ 711g6i

Does the Nightly Build overwrite the Firefox Portable?

I have the Stable, Beta, Aurora, and Legacy (3.6) installed in the PortableApps Launcher. And when I go to install the Nightly build, it asks me to Close the Current Firefox, which is Stable.

Independent 5i483m

each install is independent, but the installer just checks to see if Firefox.exe is running, not from where.
