I am having my first experience with a Chromebook and downloaded Firefox. I got a tablet version, which doesn't work well for me on a big(gish) scren with mouse and keyboard.

I see from a variety of articles across the web that I should be able to install and use a Linux version of Firefox, but I can't find info on this here on mozilla.org Which is my preferred source when it comes to Firefox :)

So: Is there a step-by-step guide to installing Linux version of Firefox on a Chromebook?

So I want to keep my work life and hobbies separated. My plan was to have two firefox accounts, one for hobbies one for work. The hobby account is the original one.

At some point I set up a work account using my work email but when I go to log in to the work account I get the error 'Primary account email required for sign-in'.

I have checked my hobby account and that email is not associated with it. It should be a separate account yet I can't log into it or even delete the account and start again because of the 'Primary account email required for sign-in'.

Anyone got a fix for this?

When I attempt to download anything from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/enterprise/#download, the download fails regardless of what browser I use. Firefox itself doesn't have much more info than that, but when I use Chrome to download it fails with "Insufficient Permissions".

I get the same message when attempting to download from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-esr.

I am able to download the EXE version of the installer from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/102.9.0/releasenotes/, but I specifically need the MSI version and am unable to extract one from the EXE.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I have copied my Profiles folder, complete with the Installs.ini and Profiles.ini files from my W10 desktop to a new W11 machine. I went through choice of default startup process. Firefox starts and works OK. Except that the stored log-ins and passwords are not available – i.e. when I try to access a familiar website I am asked for my user name and password. Is there some other step to get the stored log-ins activated?
