in some linux (arch 32 bit) I have problem executing firefox, Is there a version for CPU without request from SSE3 Flag?

thanks

I want to install a old version 52.3.0 X64 on my computer for developing web app. (the application is run on 52.3.0 X64). But I can not find the installation. Is there download center for the firefox old version?

I have downoloaed Firefox offline installer (a .xz file) from here:

https://download-installer.cdn.mozilla.net/pub/firefox/releases/139.0b9/linux-x86_64/en-GB/

I have also downloaded a .asc file, presumably a pgp signature.

Now both files are saved locally in my computer.

Assuming Linux latest release, how do I verify the contents of the offline installer file (.xz) from the Linux Terminal? I have install gpg tools. And commands like ```gpg``` are available.

What I did so far:

 gpg --show-keys --with-fingerprint firefox-139.0b9.tar.xz.asc

with this output:

 gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.

Do you really want us to verify the contents of the installers you provide? A sha256 sum would be great, though not as secure, for when the GPG predictably fails for the ordinary user due to its huge and useless complexity and bureaucracy.

Noticed 3 entries for various versions of Firefox in the Windows Settings > Apps > Installed apps. There is one Firefox record in the Start menu. 1. I have unistalled all the entries through the Windows Settings, deleted all folders for Moxilla and Firefox, cleaned the registry of every mention of Mozilla or Firefox. 2. Installed newly downloaded Firefox 137.0 three days ago. 3. After today update to v. 137.0.1 - I again have 2 entries in the Settings > Apps > Installed apps: v. 137.0 and v. 137.0.1. The same problem was with Thunderbird. I also cleaned all the folders and the Registry, then fresh installed it again. Thunderbird was not updated, so I don't know if the problem has returned. Maybe something is wrong with the Mozilla installer? What should I do to have just one Mozilla Firefox entry in the Windows Settings > Apps > Installed apps after update as it was years before? (My system is: Windows 11 Pro 24H2 English US, Firefox 64-bit English US)

Additional information: I found that the Uninstall registry entries are stored in different hives: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Mozilla Firefox 137.0 (x64 en-US) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Mozilla Firefox 137.0.1 (x64 en-US)
