When is the final 64bit verson of firefox to be released please
While I appreciate you (mozilla) are working to finalize the 64bit, and according to your internal sources a beta version is currently on offering, when do you envision that a timeline month and year is likely to be the presentation and will it be compatible with windows 10 environment and all other 32-64bit os programs
the crashes and loss of function seems be on the increase with the current 32bit which is driving me nuts! I would rather not revert back to explorer which is unstable at best with v 11. Please do not mistake that I'm not grateful for what is current but watching the browser revert to a collection of rectangles, squares and colored border-less patterns is causing me and no doubt other uses frustration with the introduction of windows 10 has created.
Thank you in anticipation

Win64 for Windows right?
Unless it changes there is going to be Win64 Firefox for Firefox 42.0 Release alongside the 32-bit for Windows.
The Win64 Firefox requires 64-bit Windows 7, 8 and 10 to run. It will not run on 64-bit WinXP, Vista or servers.
Also the only 64-bit Plugin that is white listed to run in Win64 Firefox is the Flash Player. If you want to use other Plugins (on Windows) you will need 32-bit Firefox and 32-bit Plugins.
There has been 64-bit Firefox for Mac OSX and Linux from mozilla.org since Firefox 4.0 both because it was needed and was also much easier to do.
I wonder why you feel your crashes will be resolved with a 64bit Firefox. Do you have your crash ID's? Lets see whats actually causing your crashes.
