Waterfox 18.0.1: 19 January [Firefox 64-Bit] - Page 343

post #3421 of 5132
How do I uninstall V14? There is no option in Installer and there is no registration under Programs installed in Control panel.

Go to Tools/Option/Applications.
Look for your PDF reader.
Under Actions select "Always Ask"
Now you will have an option to open or save.

Most people i think don't know it. But there is a 64bit Firefox since 2005: http://www.vector64.com/WindowsBuilds.html
I used it a long time and the 64bit stuff goes really slow.
I was waiting years for flash.
It's a shame that such big company's with such expensive Software don't get it and
need such a long time.
Also until today Adobe did not fix the pdf thumbnail preview.
It needs people like him who does it free: http://www.pretentiousname.com/adobe_pdf_x64_fix/

Well until the release of Windows 7, 32-bit operating systems were still the most used out there. Since 64-bit has caught on it's only a matter of time people stop using 32-bit browsers in favor of 64-bit. But that'll take time, a few more years at least. It's a good start to have 64-bit Java, Flash and Silverlight plugins but there's many, many to go that's needed like QuickTime, Windows Media and Battlelog for Battlefield 3.

And yes, a proper PDF Acrobat plugin from Adobe. Though if you can wait for Firefox 16, there will be inline PDF support which should work in Waterfox too.

Yep. It won't be long and 32bit OS will be flushed out. Once "64 bit" becomes mainstream, everyone will start producing stuff on 64bit architecture.

Right now most programs don't need the 64bit memory perk, but time will quickly put that to an end and Microsoft will probably discontinue its 32bit OS.

I've been using the dev version of the Mozilla PDF viewer, https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/ and it's been working just great with WF. There were a few PDFs that it didn't display too well but an update a day or so later (which do not need restarts) fixed them. It does occasionally warn you that particular PDFs may not display properly but so far the majority have been fine.

Any update on this? Still not working for me, mainly want it to be able to use 4chan more effectively.

The Waterfox website is down! For some reason SourceForge removed it!

 

Argh this doesn't look very professional mad.gif
