I have a Mac that you are threatening not to serve any more. I read about your Extended download. If I do not download this Firefox Extended upgrade, does this mean that my Mac will not be able to browse and read web pages, etc., or will I not be able to open any URLs?

Also, I am having problems with some downloads in Acrobat not displaying the proper font type and size and kerning, but it downloads and prints those documents in the right dimensions. Is this a Firefox problem or an Acrobat problem or a computer problem?

I should mention that I am just about out of memory on this old computer and do not wish to add more downloads at this time, until I can get some memory cleared out, which might take me awhile.

The latest versions of Firefox (and Tor) are still fixed and work successfully in Windows 7, and this is still relevant.

After all, the Firefox team can also release updated versions, right?

Hello Everyone,

I am using actually 140.9. ESR. How can I cange to the "normal" Version?

Or could I use browser-VPN in ESR too ?

Many Thanks for answering. Chris

Up until version 141, the difference between 32 bit and 64 bit Firefox installers wasn't noteworthy, though it has clearly been slowly increasing overtime. However, starting from version 141, the difference between them doubled from 5MB to 10MB, meaning a nearly 13.5% larger installer for the 64bit version than the 32bit one.

Why is that? What happened? Are there are feature differences that would warranty such a large gulf in their installer sizes? It's the AI isn't it? 32bit users were spared the bloat of the AI.

I also see that starting from 115.16 Firefox suggests users that aren't on Windows 7-8.1 or MacOS 10.12-10.14 should use other versions. Given both x86 and Windows' immense reputation surrounding backwards compatibility, is this really a concern? Is there REALLY something supported by Windows 7-8.1 that wouldn't function on 10?
