How do I instal non-ESR Firefox? Copyfish does not work with ESR.

My current version of Firefox is ESR 52.7.3 (32 bit), which works satisfactorily, and it updates automatically. However, Copyfish does not work with it, and I seem to recall reading somewhere that Copyfish is designed to work with Firefox 55 and later. Whenever I attempt to update Firefox, I am offered the ESR version. How do I go about installing the latest non-ESR version of Firefox?

hi, you appear to be using windows xp - firefox 52esr is the last version that's made available for and is able to run on that operating system unfortunately. Firefox has ended support for Windows XP and Vista

The Copyfish has listed each version as needing Firefox Firefox 42.0 and later so Fx 52 ESR should technically work ten.
