How can I get both Firefox and Google Chrome?

I want to keep my Google Chrome as it is. I have one company I do business with that is telling me I have to use your Firefox browser. I do not want to switch all I do over to Firefox. Is there a way you can help me? I used to have Internet Explorer until I had to do a reset. Did not necessarily want to get Internet Explorer back, so having Firefox would be fine. I had separate web pop up icon on my task bar that allowed me to do that. I just don't know how to make that happen with Foxfire on my computer. Just not the greatest at technology. Could some one walk me through that? Thank you

I've removed your phone number, as per the Mozilla Support rules and guidelines.

I get the impression that you think you are speaking with Mozilla employees in your post. This is a community forum, and the people replying are mostly fellow Firefox users, volunteering their time.

With that out of the way... :) You should be able to have as many browsers as you want on your PC. When you say " I had separate web pop up icon on my task bar", I think you referring to pinned icon. When Firefox is running, right-click on the icon in your taskbar, and click on Pin this program to the taskbar. It's a Windows feature, not a Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox feature. For instructions, visit http://www.windowscentral.com/how-pin-apps-taskbar-windows-10

To help get you set up, these articles should help:

Lastly, did the company say why you have to use Firefox? Mozilla tries hard to advocate open technologies so everyone should be able to use whatever browser they want to use on any site.
