Mozilla last upgraded Firefox four weeks ago, on Sept. Choose 'About Firefox.' (On macOS, 'About Firefox' can be found under the 'Firefox' menu.) The resulting page or pop-up shows that the browser is already up to date or displays the upgrade process. To manually update on Windows, pull up the menu under the three horizontal bars at the upper right, then click the help icon (the question mark within a circle). Because Firefox updates in the background, most users need only launch (or relaunch) the browser to install the latest version. The majority of those vulnerabilities were in the 'memory safety bugs' bucket, a category that covers a wide swath of memory corruption and memory leak flaws.įirefox 93 can be downloaded for Windows, macOS, and Linux from Mozilla's site. The organization's security engineers also patched seven vulnerabilities, four marked 'High,' Firefox's second-most-serious label. I will try these.Mozilla this week updated Firefox to version 93, which now blocks downloads over insecure connections, improves the browser's anti-tracking prowess and introduces Firefox Suggest, the newest way the company will try to earn revenue. I turned off the firefox update prior to 57 and have been wondering what to use next. Hope this helps people who are desperately seeking a nice browser without resorting to Chrome. They also support the same add-ons that Firefox supported back during those versions. They're nice flashbacks that make me feel like I'm reliving the good old days.

Basilisk was released just days ago, likely as a result of developers who also hated 'Quantum'. Right now I'm using Pale Moon, which is a fork of Firefox, and has the user interface from the 4-28 era.Īnother fork of Firefox, which has the UI from the 29-56 era is Basilisk. I looked for forks of Firefox, and found several. It wasn't an option for me, either, so I sought alternatives. I don't blame her for not liking Firefox 57 'Quantum'.
