Launch profile in new browser

Post by grahamperrin »

Whilst a download progresses, it seems impossible to use the Launch profile in new browser feature of about:profiles

Is this expected?

Not a show-stopper, just an oddity. The workaround is simple enough: pause.

Waterfox 56.2.3 on FreeBSD-CURRENT.

yup.. ooyh my no one has posted in here in years.;.
'and its no surprise Mozilla has made the current download manager inferior to Download Manager Tweak..
it doesn't show as much info as DMT does.. ;^_^;

so that is why I keep Waterfox classic installed on the side of Firefox..

I have created a page on my own website on free Angelfire website to host the last working version of
Download Manager Tweak (v1.0.13)(FF_v56)
https://www.angelfire.com/empire/kingdombaron/dmt.html

which works with Waterfox Classic a derived from older Firefox v56 or something the last working version..
https://classic.waterfox.net/


The following scripts are needed to run Tab Mix Plus, which has be reworked to run on newer Firefox as a XUL extension...

hope it helps anyone that has loved this addon.
maybe some day someone will be able to rework this addon to work with newer versions of Firefox.
