there is no way to install from mozilla's official website...but you can download a standalone installer in cnet.com....here is the link: [link(s) removed by Moderator - please only post links to the Mozilla server to download Firefox]

download standalone mozilla firefox

I have a requirement to install FireFox on non-internet connected systems. I have SCCM 2012 and would like to use it. However, for testing, a single full standalone version is good for the moment. Not required to work with SCCM. But must be fully usable for a non-internet connected system. Windows x64 (specifically Server 2008 R2). does not have to be 64 bit either, 32 will work as well.

Note that Firefox 37 will be released today if everything is according to plans, so you may want to wait for that version be be released.Note that you can copy the link to the clipboard and change firefox-stub in the link to firefox-latest to get the latest release or specify the version that you are looking for.

Similarly, you can download the full standalone offline installers of other testing versions of Mozilla Firefox such as Beta, Nightly and Developer Edition or ESR (Extended Support Release) using following links:

Another related issue I'm seing is that I am unable to set the path to the firefox.exe file. I've tried to set it using -Dwebdriver.firefox.bin "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" but it is like this option is just ignored. Instead I had to add the path to my PATH environment variable in Windows.

Now, the package firefox is provided by both the Ubuntu repos and the Mozilla PPA. The version provided in the Ubuntu repos is a transitional package that actually installs the Snap version of Firefox behind the scenes, which in this case, we don't want. Check that you can see both firefox packages by running:

To prevent the installation of the Snap version of Firefox through the firefox package provided by Ubuntu, we need to modify this file as root, using gnome-text-editor or whichever text editor you prefer:

The Mozillateam PPA's "firefox" package distributes what is officially a beta version (I received Firefox 116 exactly one week before it will be officially released), although you can think of it as a release candidate (116 had already been in beta for three weeks before it was packaged for the Mozillateam PPA). If you're not completely comfortable with that, then you can edit the last line and install "firefox-esr" instead of "firefox":

Another option, which require a bit more technical knowledge, would be to get the source code, compile the addon with a custom update url on your private network. At least this way you can still update all the addons at once.
MDN Web Docs Signing and distributing your add-onAdd-ons need to be signed before they can be installed into release and beta versions of Firefox. This signing process takes place through addons.mozilla.org (AMO), whether you choose to distribute your add-on through AMO or to do it yourself.

When you do, the page/app will appear as a standalone app window, and shortcuts will appear on the desktop and in the Start menu. You can pin this app to the taskbar or to the tiles area of the Start menu, just as with any other app.

I have been looking to do this for Twitter. For reasons that I do not understand Twitter misbehaves in Chrome and Edge for me, so I run Firefox, but I would move to Edge if I could run Twitter is a standalone mode.

can I install the stuff on my nextcloud folder and run it from there on my windows clients?
I know about bookmarks and various backup tools but that way wold be super conveniant. open firefox on any device with all the same tabs, same bookmarks, similar to thunderbird, no messing arround with the settings, when switching os etc.

Valence is available as a standalone utility but also gets installed when you open Firefox's WebIDE, commonly used to debug Firefox OS apps. Assuming you have both Firefox and Chrome on your machine, you can kick off the process with the following shell command:

These are just a few I checked and saw not working on firefox dev tools. Immediately made me go back to Chrome dev tool. Any specific feature that Firefox dev tool is rocking that Chrome dev tool is not? Chrome dev tool seems to be light years ahead in the game.

I've installed latest firefox linux-x86_64 from ftp.mozilla.com on a usb device and created a new profile file with the -P command. Unfortunately, the application does not recognize the flash plugin that is already installed on the operating system.

You can create a new profile with the -P command as shown below.I've created my profile inside USB_DEVICE/.mozilla/firefox. You can set this path later. This is Mozilla's default folder skeletton for application settings (like seamonkey, thunderbird or B2G). To create a new profile run:

In light of firefox becoming a snap, i have a tutorial on how to replace the snap version with the version from mozilla's website.
Snap firefox is fine. But if you are the person who hates the constant slow startup times, and inabillity to install mozilla extensions, you're not alone.
Note: This involves getting through a little bit of terminal, but we'll just be copying and pasting commands here. This also works with any Ubuntu flavour.
Precaution: I advice to remove the firefox snap before doing this. Only remove snapd if you don't want it anymore.

FYI reading on IRC the mozilla team who maintain the PPA that has jammy builds for both firefox and firefox-ESR have made it clear that the PPA is not a guaranteed permanent thing. Originally said by @fossfreedom on Ubuntu Budgie Discourse.

Zotero [zoh-TAIR-oh] is a free, open source, easy-to-use tool to help you collect, manage, cite, and share your research sources. Zotero can be downloaded as a Firefox add-on or a standalone application that plugs into Chrome or Safari. Designed to be intuitive and unobtrusive (it looks a lot like an iTunes library), Zotero is a powerful and handy tool for any academic.
