How to download some older versions of Firefox for 64 bit windows.

Current version of Firefox has

    (1) popups to get me to download a new version,
    (2) tab pickup,
    (3) popups to show
    article titles,
    (4) popups to show
    current URLs.

I just want to download the install programs until I get the most recent one that has none of (1) - (4).

I need to go back 1, 3, 5, 10 years?

So where on the Internet should I go to get such an old Firefox install program?

I used to really like Firefox, but changes (1) -- (2) have ruined it for me.

I've tried disabling it with the secret menu and it makes no difference. Seeing as Mozilla don't give a singular toss about the needs of their neurodivergent users I want to install an old version of firefox for android with a version of the UI that doesn't make me want to self harm. I know how to disable android updates but not install an old version safely. How do I do this?

Attached a screenshot of the new UI. As an aside if anyone can recommend the drugs that the people who designed and approved this ugly tosh are on I'd love to know what they are, must be good stuff for them all to make decisions this asinine.

hi I would like to download and install firefox for android which if I understand correctly is named fenix, without going to an app store. I don't see a direct link on the main pages on the website. I noticed at https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/ it looks like it might be possible to get the apk. My concern would be does this violate any terms or licenses? Is this 100 percent ok to do? Also does the firefox owners have anything written answering this? There are websites that imply sideloading firefox might be considered using without permission and I definitely don't want that.

Hi, Sorry to be a nuisance but I have tried all the suggestions to migrate T/bird complete and nothing works, I have been extremely careful that Thunderbird has been closed before making actions. It is a new and "empty" Win 11 25H2 machine.

The second Mozilla suggestion is impossible as my appdata/local folder has many files and is enormous, it does not seem to have a user name in the address either.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated, or I will have to manually make a clone of Thunderbird with the email accounts and refer to the W10 machine for stored mail until these become too old to be of interest.
