[QUOTE="HarborFront, post: 974025, member: 55987"] LW portable version. I'm talking of the ZIP file and NOT the EXE file version. LW does not auto update when there's a new version being release, and it creates a problem if you try to use a new version over the old. Assuming you have an existing version say v96.0.2 you'll see that it creates a folder librewolf-96.0.2 and inside will have 2 folders (namely, LibreWolf and Profiles) and a file, librewolf-portable.exe If you manually download the new v96.0.3 zip version and perform the extraction, it'll create another folder, v96.0.3 and inside will similarly have 2 folders and 1 file as above. So it's NOT overriding the old v96.0.2 version. The problem is all the settings and extensions in v96.0.2 will NOT appear in the new v96.0.3 if you execute the librewolf-portable.exe file of the v96.0.3 version To solve the problem, go to [URL='https://github.com/ltGuillaume/LibreWolf-WinUpdater']GitHub - ltGuillaume/LibreWolf-WinUpdater: An attempt to make updating LibreWolf for Windows much easier[/URL] to get the Librewolf WinUpdater and install following the instructions. You'll get v96.0.3 after you update successfully and running librewolf-portable.exe. The only problem is the folder librewolf-96.0.2 still remains as librewolf-96.0.2. It does NOT rename to librewolf-96.0.3 Note :- The LibreWolf WinUpdater is developed for both the exe and portable versions [/QUOTE]
