Hello Is it Is it possible to have two separate installations of Firefox on the same PC. I would like one normal installation and one that would delete all cookies at shutdown. Thanks

Here is your answer. see screenshot I run multiple versions on multiple devices. This way if one device goes down, my data is accessible.

Just download, unzip, and run firefox-bin from the folder. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release

What you want can be achieved with multiple profile folders, no need for another Firefox installation.

You can use Sync if you want to share bookmarks and history and other data like logins.
