recently moved from Vistax86 to Win7, The-Way-Of-The-Future-x64. But, now I find that I can not open (previously) saved web pages with FF when offline. Win7 offers choice of IE, Chrome, Adobe reader, or notepad, from the System(x64) directory, and even if I navigate to FF ('open with.. other pgm>>>), FF /not recognised/ by Win7x64 for this task! (Grrrr!) C'mon Mozilla - IE & Chrome, but NOT FF! When I look for FFx64, 'it ain't happening', they say.

>>>>>> OMG ! FF Faltering?!?, Fallen Behind !! }:-\ <<<<<<<<<

Plus, Chrome won't open it unless I'm online, Adobe won't recognise (.php.htm) .. Anyone know of a workaround, other than moving to Chrome (or IE) ?

Sounds that you haven't installed Firefox properly if it isn't available as an installed browser or isn't associated with the .htm(l) file extension.

Firefox is a 32 bit application and should be able to open such a file as such from the C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\
