Hello, I just successfully downloaded Firefox Portable. The Wizard asked if I wanted it to load right up. I did. Nothing happened other than a very brief splash screen. I confirmed the exe's location. I set up a shortcut on Windows. I double click on it. I get the splash screen for a second or so. Then nothing. Anyone? Thank you much. I have run malware checks. I have added a firewall exception. I am flat out of ideas.

Is this with WinXP (NT 5.1) as your Chrome 49.0 UA you used to post with shows.

Firefox 53.0 and later has required Windows 7, 8 (8.1), 10 to run.

At most you can use the old legacy portable Firefox 52.9.0 ESR https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox-portable-legacy-52
