Because the tablet is windows based, there is no Firefox App, so everything opens in the full PC version, which is not really that easy to navigate on a tablet all that often. Every add on I have found so far is not compatible with Quantum. Any help apreciated.

Hi, at the moment there is nothing really that is adequate as before but you could give this a try after investigating if it meets your needs : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/mobile-view-switcher/

Firefox doesn't run on a Windows tablet. You can only install Firefox on Android and iOS.

Firefox is installed on my ASUS Windows 10 tablet. The link you provided is a couple of years old and applied to Windows RT, and Windows Phones, which are no longer in production. Thanks for attempt though, I do appreciate you taking your time to try to help.

Sorry, I misunderstood.

The devtools.devices.url pref stores a link to a file that is used by Responsive Design Mode to simulate mobile devices that you can use with the above posted extension.
