I installed the msix package from Microsoft Store. We can't add our autoconfig to the msix version? We don't have access to C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Mozilla.Firefox_xxx.x.x.x_x64__n80bbvh6b1yt2\VFS\ProgramFiles\Firefox Package Root so we can't put the needed files there. So were are we supposed to put the autoconfig files? Firefox seems to have added support for the similar situation on linux with flatpak and snap. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1785278 There isn't a way to use autoconfig on Windows if we choose to install Firefox from the store of the OS?

I noticed when I went to check for updates the Fire Fox Browser is, Windows MSIX Package Mozilla, MSIX 1.0 143.0.1 (64 bit). What is this and why? Do I need to uninstall this version of Fire Fox and reinstall a new one? If so, how do I do that without loosing all my data. Thanks for your help!

I use Firefox on Windows. I like it. But I also have an HP Chromrbook and I would rather use Firefox than Chrome. But I really don't want to do the entire Linux dance. Is there an easier way to get Firefox for my HP Chromebook?

I think when Mozilla was formed, it received all the assets of the former Netscape Communications corp, yes?

I tinker with some VMs running vintage OSes, including DOS+Win 3.1, and Linux distro releases from the 90's and early 2000's. I'd like to, for example install Netscape 1.x or 2.x on Win 3.1 and Debian Hamm 2.0.

I am wondering if Mozilla has a download archive somewhere with historic releases like Netscape 1.x through 4.x for all platform for which builds were originally released?
