Firefox's Extended Service Release [SOLVED]

[ukbobboy]

Dear Forum Members & Sandboxie experts

I am still a WinXP SP3 user, simply because it continues to works well for me, and I also use Firefox v51.0.1 (32 bit) as my "go to" browser, again because it's very flexible and works well.

However, today I came across Firefox v52.x new "Extended Service Release" browser which seem to indicate that it will still run under Win XP but no longer work with plug-ins that worked with v51.x, and that worries me because this may mean that Sandboxie, I have version 5.22 (32 bit), will not work anymore.

If possible, can anyone confirm whether Sandboxie will still work with Firefox's new ESR version of browsers?

Cheers

[..] can anyone confirm whether Sandboxie will still work with Firefox's new ESR version of browsers?

Firefox ESR 52.5.3 (32-bit) + Sandboxie 5.23.2 (64-bit) on W10 works for me.

Hi Bob, be aware, Sandboxie 5.22 is the last version that supports XP.

Hi Bob

Cheers for that piece of information, which I did not know about beforehand, so I guess I'll stay where I am until I'll have to upgrade, at the moment I do not need to.

Once again, cheers.
