I downloaded Firefox 54 64bit. But, when I close Firefox it jumps to 32bit. How can I keep Firefox 54 64bit permanently?

Make sure that you do not have both 32 bit and 64 bit Firefox versions installed.

  • (64 bit Firefox) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
  • (32 bit Firefox) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
