Moderators hazelnut Posted November 22, 2012 Moderators Share Posted November 22, 2012 Mozilla engineering manager has asked that all work on 64bit versions cease. builds often crash, many plugins are not available in 64-bit versions, and hangs are more common due to a lack of coding which causes plugins to function incorrectly http://news.cnet.com/8301-1023_3-57553467-93/mozilla-quietly-ceases-firefox-64-bit-development/ Support contact https://support.ccleaner.com/s/contact-form?language=en_US&form=general or support@ccleaner.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eL_PuSHeR Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 As far as x86 continue working properly... Like it or not x64 is becoming mainstream. X86 will be obsolete in the near future, I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corona Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I uninstalled Waterfox a while ago after it started causing problems. It was running fine for a few months, then, blech. I'm back on FF 16.01. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan_B Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 slightly misleading, they've only stopped building x64 NIGHTLY and HOURLY builds An alternative way of saying that is that there will be no further Beta 64 bit variants, and henceforth all available official Firefox x64 users will be Beta Testers. So no change there then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
