So, as has been announced, FireFox 115 ESR will get updates until septempber 2025. This deadline has been extended multiple times. What factors are being taken in consideration when deciding whether to extend support again? With server 2008 updates you can get windows 7 up to date until 2026, sort of. Ending support in september would still be sad, because people too stubborn or not willing to upgrade probably still wont when support of firefox ends. I am a firefox on windows 7 user myself too, and it would be sad if they dropped support. Ill have to use a backported fork by the community

So thats my question, what factors matter in terms of extending 115 esr support again?

I am trying to install the new extension for Mac OS below 10.14.I have Mac OS 10.13, and this laptop cannot update to any newer OS.

I received the message that Firefox is not longer supported on my OS. I tried to download the extension to fix this issue.

I got to where there is a Firefox icon with an arrow pointing to the Applications folder icon. 

Now instructions. What am I supposed to do?

I am skilled in MANY things, not computer set up stuff.

ALSO - I clicked on something that seemed logical at the time. I do not recall what it was that prompted me to choose "existing" program (Firefox). or to not choose the existing program. I don't understand the process and clicked on "existing". I fear this was the wrong choice. Most web pages will not load. But if I click on the fox icon at the top of the window, it now shows a list of recently closed tabs, and if I click on the website listed on that page, the website will open.

Any assistance is appreciated.

Hi Mozilla Team / Community,

We understand that Firefox 115 ESR will receive security updates until at least version 115.27.0esr in August 2025.

We currently have a number of devices still running Windows 7 for legacy application reasons and rely on Firefox 115 ESR as it's the last version to support that OS.

We need to plan ahead, so could you please confirm:

Will Mozilla continue to support Windows 7 with Firefox 115 ESR updates until August 2025?

Or is support for Windows 7 ending sooner, even if 115 ESR itself continues?

Version: 128.10.0esr OS: openSUSE 15.6

At the present moment Firefox prevents my screen saver from starting when a video is playing in the browser. I would like to completely disable this ability so that Firefox can never interfere with the screen saver.

How can I do this?

Running FF115.23.1ESR on a Win7/32 box I use in network maintenance/configuration.

If I log into the modem main page and select from the side-bar menu, FF drops me back to the modem's login screen (Groundhog Day style). This behaviour is repeatable (endlessly) on:

  • * another identical modem (same/latest firmware). These have repeatedly been factory reset and firmware reloaded. No change.
  • * another Win7 box (/64) on same FF release.

Opera - reluctantly added on those same Win7 boxes - does not have this (mis-)behaviour.

Win10/64 running FF138.0.4 does not have this issue.

Up until about ten weeks back, the (then-current) Win7/X esr release did NOT have this problem.

Yes, I HAVE cleared cache/cookies repeatedly before sessions, to no avail. <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> [EDIT:] The on-line modem/router emulator can be accessed at https://support.netcommwireless.com/e.../login.html The default un/pswd is admin/admin. Once in the main page, select "Advanced" from the left menu list. This (in the emulator) opens the Advanced page, as it should. In a normal situation here, it simply reverts to the login page.

Q1: Anyone have any experience like this, or any clues/suggestions?

Q2: To continue using these Win7 boxes in that role, am I forced to abandon FF?

How can I transfer all of my data and settings from Mozilla Firefox to the Firefox ESR version. I have Windows 7. I installed the ESR version but all of my bookmarks and settings disappeared. I still have the current version of Mozilla Firefox, which is no longer supported. If I can't easily and quickly incorporate all of my current settings, etc., to the temporary ESR version, and I uninstall the ESR version without that operation automatically uninstalling the current version?

Hello,

I have old 15 year old mac el capitan -10.11.r with outdated firefox 78.15.0esr 64-bit.... in perfect condition. Unfortunately I can not make updates on browser anymore. Online banking websites does not allow me to use this outdated browser. Would you be so kind to make even paid update for me? Or at least let me know what settings I should change under about:config

Waiting to hear from you! [edited email from public]

I purchased a new MacBook Pro and moved the copy of Firefox V.91.6.1 via a thumb drive from my old iMac to my new MacBook Pro. The application opened, but none of my Profile information was present on the screen.

Later, I installed the ESR version of Firefox on my new MacBook Pro also, it opened as well, but did not display my Profile information either.

How can I obtain all of my established Profile information on my new Laptop computer, and run the current version of Firefox there as well?

Thank you for your help.

Firefox kicks me out! My Mac works like a charme without any hardware problems. But now my favorite browser (FF) quits support. I'm amazed that a project like Mozilla does not care about sustainability. Any update in the software world must take care concerning downward compatibility - otherwise you exclude former users/customers. So why is ESR for Macos 10.9 to 10.11 not supported anymore? There are millions of Core2Duo-machines, that Mozilla sends to the trash. I'm extremely disappointed!
