Hi, similar posts here did not answer my question.

I am coming back to FF after a short absence (was using Chrome but quickly tired of it).

I was thrilled to hear about FF54, so I want to install it. I have Win10 64bit and have, in the past, only used 32-bit versions of FF.

What are the pluses and minuses of 64bit v. 32bit of FF?

Thank you in advance.

You can install the 64 bit Firefox 54 version.

In the past you would have to use a 32 bit in you needed support for plugin other than Flash, but current releases only support the Flash plugin. You would have to use the 32 bit Firefox 52 ESR version if you need to use other plugins.
