Hi Community. I have used Firefiox for years on Android phones and my Windows devices. Now I have a Chrome tablet I want to use in place of a Windows laptop I cannot get the desktop to show the Menu Bar. Any suggestions?

HI Chris

You may want to look into running the Linux version - this will give you a Firefox on Desktop experience on your device. The guide as to install that can be found at:

Hi Seburo, I've only just found time to try this in the last few weeks. Linux installs and Flatpak afterwards but then it tells me that there is no such package as Firefox.

Okay. Can you walk me through the exact steps you followed?

Hi Seburo. Thank you for your time but I don't have time to do all this so sadly I am abandoning Firefox for Chrome as it doesn't expect all the messing about to use on a Chromebook.
