I guess the way I look at it is: we had a perfectly good compilation of current Firefox in both release and ESR flavours that already worked on Windows 7 and 8x. That's all I want. XP and Vista can now be damned whereas 7 and 8x can be more easily made to work. I'd be happy if e3k-etc could just release a more up to date version of v140 ESR. He already has it working with with v140.0.11, so just recompile the next one. Sigh!

I know these forks are free, and it's their time, but if you're going to commit, then commit. Don't deliver because, "I don't feel like it". The browser artist known as e3k-blah (I friggin love that), is not going to further compile any ESR 140x builds. I appreciate these builds, but either deliver consistently, or don't.

While I'm here, has anyone been able to compile either Thunderbird OR Betterbird v140 for Windows 7 and 8x?

OK good! So the Firefox 153 DOES run with Windows 8! ... e3kskoy7wqk said he is ONLY supporting Windows 7 on this beta and may restore support later. I am a wee bit worried, so I'm sticking with his ESR 14.x builds for now.

Microsoft removed outdated Windows 10 cumulative updates from MUC
Jody Thornton replied to halohalo's topic in Windows 10
So if one were using LTSC 2019 (installing it fresh as of April 2026), does that mean we would not have access to all required updates? If I ran the latest cumulative update, we'd be all good and caught up, correct? -
Could the Next Firefox ESR Version Be Supported on Windows 7/8x ?
Jody Thornton replied to Jody Thornton's topic in Windows 8
Mozilla really should allow ESR 140x to be backported. If r3dFox and Firefox for Windows 7 can do it, then ... -

I still have LTSC 2019 setup, and heavily customized, but I'm putting off using it. I really enjoy Windows 8.
