Tom AZ Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I currently have a full install of Firefox 2 on my computer and designated as my default browser. I've just started using FF 3.5.2 portable concurrently with that install of FF2. So now, I have a few questions because of having both versions: 1) Because FF 2 is my default browser, how do I get FF 3.5.2 Portable to open under Sandboxie? 2) For the FF extensions that don't install directly from the Firefox Add-On menu itself, how do I point a *.exe extension install to the right version (the portable version in this case), so it doesn't re-install in version 2? (An example of this would be McAfee Site Advisor -- or Roboform) 3) Lastly, how do I get all of my bookmarks from FF2 to FF Portable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icedrake Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 1. Maybe this might help? Clicky! 2. Download the Addon (to a place like your desktop) >> Open Firefox Portable >> Go to Add-ons, then the Extensions area >> Then drag & drop the addon you downloaded onto the Extensions area and it'll install. 3. Make a backup from FF2, and import that backup into FF3. (Use the FEBE extension, as I don't think FF2 comes with a default bookmark backup option).

Tom AZ Posted August 12, 2009 Author Share Posted August 12, 2009 Thanks for all the help, Icedrake. Not sure how I missed the how to change the "default browser," but I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
