How do I downloud Firefox Web Browser on to my flashdrive?

I want to get it on my flashdrive, all I can do is copy and paste, but the shortcuts need to be connected to only my computer. How do I make it so that all I need is the flashdrive on any computer?

The regular Firefox program will not work on a flash/pin/thumb/USB/jump drive. However Firefox Portable will.

  • Firefox Portable is not produced by Mozilla but is based on the released versions of Firefox
  • Firefox Portable has a separate web site and separate support/help.
  • Firefox Portable can also be installed on your desktop hard drive along with your regular current version of Firefox; it installs in a separate folder, does not interfere with your personal settings (bookmarks, passwords, etc.) for your regular Firefox desktop installation, and keeps its add-ons separate.
  • Firefox Portable maintains several "legacy" versions of Firefox for use on sites that have not adopted/adapted to the current released/supported versions of Firefox
