Do I need Firefox 78.0.2 (x64) and Firefox ESR (x64)? Also I noticed I have noticed a very slow startup. I have an old Dell Vostro 460 PC. I also did a Task Manager and noticed five Firefox process. Can I shut some of these down?

Thanks, Irv

It looks like you have both Firefox 78.0.2 and Firefox 115.23.0esr installed and also running for some reason. The old Firefox 78.0.2 is not needed for Firefox 115.23.0esr to run.

With the eol Windows 7, 8, 8.1 the most current version of Firefox you can run is Firefox 115 ESR currently at Fx 115.23.0esr and will be updated til Fx 115.27.0esr in August unless Mozilla extends updates again.
