Hi!

You may want to take a look at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-install-firefox-windows-8-touch

I would assume the options to switch into it would be the same. I can't confirm though since I don't run Windows 8.

I have done this already but the app launches and just pops right back up to the start menu
