Microsoft no longer supports Windows XP at all, and Windows Vista drops out of extended support on April 11, 2017. New features, however, will be restricted to the mainline version of Firefox. Firefox 52 is an Extended Support Release it will receive security fixes (and only security fixes) for approximately one year. Future major versions of the browser will require at a minimum Windows 7. The release is the final major version to support two legacy operating systems: Windows XP and Windows Vista. You can even set Firefox 2 to always restore your previous session instead of loading a home page, so you will never lose your place again.Firefox 52 is out today, and it's a landmark release for a couple of reasons. The windows and tabs you were using, the text you typed into forms, and the in-progress downloads you had running will all be Restored. Now, with Session Restore, if Firefox has to restart or closes when it comes back you will pick up exactly where you left off. Losing your place while you are doing things on the Web is a pain. Just start typing into the Search bar, and a drop down list of suggestions will appear. Some of the search engines in Firefox 2 can read your mind, and actually suggest search terms for what you are looking for. When you have too many tabs open to comfortably fit in a single window, scroll arrows will appear on either side, and a button on the right side will always show you an easy-to-read list of all your open tabs.įirefox 2 has built-in spell checking to keep you from making any mistakes in your blog posts and Web-based email, so you can worry about more important things. Each of those tabs has its own close button, but do not worry - if you accidentally close a tab, just go to the History menu to bring it back from the list of recently Closed Tabs.You will never be crunched for space anymore, either. We love tabs as much as you do, so Firefox 2 will open new web pages in tabs by default. There are a lot to do on the Web, and Firefox 2 is full of helpful features to make your time online more productive.
