All Firefox Releases for Windows have had a full setup file while the small online stub installer concept only existed since Firefox 18.0 and more recently included Win64 with it as default choice if system supports it. The Stub is served on http://www.mozilla.org while the full setup for current Release is served on http://www.moilla.org/firefox/all/


All Releases are at http://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/ as for example the 32-bit en-US Firefox 47.0.2 is at http://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/ ... n32/en-US/

If you go this route you need to make sure they are installed in separate folders and that each version is started with separate Profiles as they should not be shared.

You could instead try using a portable version of Firefox 47.0.1 as it is more self contained as you can runn it off a usb flash drive if you want. It will not touch your Profile in use by the Firefox 56.0.2 you have.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/portab ... %2047.0.1/ and pick your language.

My Firefox version 56 is 64 bit installed in C:Programs Files folder
The 47 version I want to install will be 32 Bit to install in C:program files (x86)
That would put them in separate folders
You say do not share Profiles

You say do not share Profiles

Use separate Profile for each FF version.
Disable updates, heh, might have to be quick, in FF 47.

I Got My two Firefox Versions set up now

My main Firefox browser is Firefox version 56 (64 bit) version install in Programs Files folder I renamed the desktop icon 56
I then Installed Firefox 47.01 (32 Bit) Version and it in program files (x86)
And renamed the desktop icon 47. I could not use the Bookmarks because of a conflict, so I opened up the profile folder and created a new Profile name it Foscam ( for my security camera’s )
Clicked run Firefox
Setup my Bookmarks the and installed IPCWebComponents now all my security camera's are viewable from my browser now
I found several ways of doing this but the way I did it was the easiest
Case closed
Thanks for the input from the peopled who reply
