Multiple copies of Firefox on windows

22 Jan 2010

Upgrading is good but there are some who just don’t updgade as often as others, so I have upgraded to Firefox 3 but wanted to keep Firefox 2 at hand for testing websites I develop, so here is how to install multiple copies of Firefox on Windows.

Step 1

Download Firefox


Step 2

Go to start run and type:

firefox.exe -ProfileManager


This will open Profile Manager


Step 3

Inside Profile Manager create a new profile and store it in a new location


Step 4

Now install the version of Firefox you want to use alongside the previously installed one, also remember to select a new location for the new one you are installing.

It was easy  to decide on which web technology to build it on since I am more experienced with PHP than any other web technology.
