Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Troubleshoot(Safe) Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

Oh, I didn't realize you could install apps that way.

I think I got the full process when I tested with an app -- clicked the button in the overlay, confirmed by entering password -- but weirdly at the end, there is still an Install button on the web and the app is not actually on my phone.

Well, I don't know what's going on, sorry.

@FredMcD Tried the trouble shooting mode, but still the same problem. I did try in an fully separate portable clean install and still the problem persisted, this means the cache and cookies are clean because I am starting from a clean separate portable install. Chrome works, but firefox doesn't seem to work.

The actual firefox I work on is also a portable version, this means the 2 versions I tried (my current portable installation and the second test portable installation) are completely separate.

I could have overlooked something, but this is just weird because the portable versions are completely segregated from each other and the OS. (portable apps version).

Almost all my apps are portable apps the only thing that is installed: - GhostVolt - ShadowDefender - Starmenu X

I have been running ghostvolt for about a month, and ShadowDefender almost 11 years, startmenu X for about a year.

Everything else is portable, as I like to run a clean ship on my OS.

This issue started about 5 days ago. It's easy to put the blame on firefox but in this situation I absolutely have no clue what could be wrong from my end.

@jscher2000 If you are logged into the same account in google play in firefox (any browser) as in your smartphone, then installing an app from the browser is like passing on an instruction to the device ordering it install that app. If you have multiple devices with that account, the play store website asks on which device you want to install the app on.

It always worked and I have scripted a way to install apps on multiple accounts this way (but this is beyond the scope of this issue, just wanted to state the reason why I need this to work).

In any case, thank you for the feedback. I really appreciate it.

The actual firefox I work on is also a portable version

Firefox Portable is a 3rd-party build. Support is available here: http://portableapps.com/forums/support/firefox_portable

I just tried the official firefox, meaning install firefox through the official installer, but the problem still persists.

Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox {web link}

Remove a single website from your history {web link}

Open the History Manager <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> H. In the search bar, enter the name of the site. Right-click on one of the listings and select Forget About This Site. This should remove all information, including any site settings And Passwords.

@FredMcD Do I need to do those steps in a clean install? (Tried a clean install on another pc and the problem still persisted). I tried an older version 78.02 and there it works everything above that persists the issue. EDIT: submitted a bug report in bugzilla

When just uninstalling a program, some data might be left behind and could cause problems with the new install. By removing the folder instead, everything gets taken out. Especially any corrupt files.

Then the clean install might not work. But please try anyway.

If nothing works, we can try to re-install the older program.

Well done. Can you post the link to it, please?

Hopefully, they can do something.
