I installed Firefox ESR today since the website said I should use it on my older operating system (10.14.6/Mojave).

Unfortunately, it fails to fully launch - the menu bar is grayed out.

I re-installed. No help.

I restarted. No help here either.

I stupidly trashed my older version - the one that actually worked, so now I am searching for an older Firefox that actually WILL work. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Hello, I am experiencing unexpected behaviour with local storage in Firefox Portable ESR 102.1.0 on Windows 11. In particular, the data is not deleted as expected after closing the application, even after clearing the cache in my code, the data persists when I open the application the next time. This behaviour is observed under windows10 but is common under windows11.

I suspect that this issue may be related to:

• Interactions between Firefox Portable's cache management and Windows 11's system-level caching
• Specific behavior of the ESR 102.1.0 version on Windows 11

I would appreciate it if you could investigate this issue and provide any insights or solutions.

Hello,

I'm using Linux Mint 17.3 (Rosa). Firefox version is 78.7.1 esr-linux amazon. I want to update to the latest Firefox that would work with this version of Linux Mint. It seems maybe this can't be done anymore. Looking at Firefox software on the machine, it says it's Up to Date. I really still want to update it. I know Mint 17.3 is really old and will replace it. Firefox does work, but I'm now getting sluggish Internet because Firefox can't handle all the security requirements. So many web pages don't very well anymore. Can someone help?

I have a Windows 7 machine and I am unable to download firefox to it but I've read that there's a Firefox ESR for Windows 7 and 8 can anyone help me by sending me a link to the exact spot where I need to get that to download it?

I use a 2009 Mac Mini running OS 10.11.6 dedicated for streaming. I was prompted to update Firefox to ESR which I did, replacing the older version of Firefox. The new version will not open.

It was the only browser I had. Can I undo the installation? Or download 78.15.0 somehow to restore the functionality of this Mac?

I am running Windows 7 Professional. I can not justify the cost of updating Installed versions of Applications at my age (86) if I were to update from Windows 7. Could you please advise a work-around to allow me to continue to use Firefox V 94.0.1 reliably after 25 March 2025. Thank you Graham Garden

My company relies on another company for our VM using Amazon Linux 2 and installs Firefox ESR from Amazon Linux 2 extras. We have 115.18.0esr and were getting notifications at the top of Firefox saying this would stop working on 14th March. We got 128.7.0esr but it core dumped on loading even in safe mode and when creating a new profile. So downgraded and then found another coworker faced same issue so go him to also downgrade. I then went to recreate my issue get logs and screenshots to provide to my supplier but 128.7.0esr has disappeared from the amazon linux yum repo and the notification about the need to upgrade before 14th March has also gone and gone from co worker machines. I think it was needed for plugin and cert issues but I am not sure. I realise I should reach out to the supplier for them to then contact Amazon and find out what the issues are from their yum repo and see if it is anything to do with their provided vm. But has anyone got any info on the reason to upgrade from 115.18.0esr so I can add to the issue? I know it's EOL but the message was specific and came from Firefox and links which took you to info about why it was needed but it seems weird the notification has disappeared.

Hello fellow foxes,

I really need to use Firefox version 52ESR.MSI as I need to push it through Active Directory.

I have tried downloading the version from https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/52.0.1esr/ ,however there is no MSI version that I can see.

I also tried downloading from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/desktop-esr/win64-msi/en-US/ but the last version is 115.

I also tried third party sites like oldversion.com but I couldn't find it.

Is there anyway I can get this version of firefox? It's really important to me.

Thanks in advance

What do these question marks mean? Do they indicate tentatively planned releases?

Bottom line: will there be 115.22 through 115.24?

Hello,

I have an old version of MAC Os El Capitan 10.11.6, which new version of Mozilla can I install to respect new security standards ?

Thanks for your help

I am aware that Windows 10 will continue seeing support for the foreseeable future, but what about older versions and builds of 10?

I ask because I'm currently on a machine that physically can't update beyond version 1909 build 18363.1198 due to an issue that occurred on my machine in November 2020. So I've been stuck at that version and build of 10 for basically the last five years. While I'm trying to see if I can update it to 22h2, the last known version of Windows 10 with the hopes of enrolling in the extended security updates, that may not be feasible due to how old the mahcine itself is. Will Firefox continue to support all versions of 10 for the foreseeable future and not just those on the ESU? If so, great. If not, what version will be the last that can support the version I'm on? I don't have a Windows 11 machine yet on a full time basis (I'm testing an 11 machine out, but I may not end up keeping it) and I prefer 10 to begin with, so I would like to know when I need to stop updating Firefox itself, so that I can be sure I'll be able to keep using the browser with my current OS.
