Opening the latest version of Firefox for Fire TV now displays a warning banner at the top informing you that the app will no longer be supported after April 30, 2021. The banner remains present even while browsing web pages. Encryption desktop for mac. I asked Mozilla about the banner and they told me that it is permanent and that there is no way for users to dismiss it. Apr 12, 2021 Firefox will soon be a thing of the past on Amazon’s Fire TV and Echo Show devices. Mozilla announced that it’s ending Fire TV support for its browser on April 30, three years after it arrived on.
Mozilla's Firefox web browser will no longer be an option for users on Amazon's Fire TV or Echo Show devices.

Starting April 30, all Firefox support will stop on the Amazon devices (h/t Engadget). That means no updates and no new users or downloads. If you're one of the affected users you can keep watching on Firefox unsupported, but if you delete the app you won't be able to get it back.
For those who have Firefox set as the default browser on their Echo Show devices (that's an Alexa-powered AI assistant speaker with a screen) you'll be automatically redirected to Amazon Silk, Amazon's own web browser. In the U.S., Google's Chrome and Apple's Safari dominate browser options across all types of devices. On Fire TV, the only browser options have always been either Firefox or Silk.

The Firefox app has long been used as a workaround to access YouTube on devices where it's not supported, as Engadget explained, especially after Fire TV removed the YouTube app in 2017. The Google-owned video streamer is back on Fire TV now, but not on the Echo Show. That's where the Silk browser comes in. But Amazon did add the video conferencing app Zoom to the Show on Monday, so there's that.

Still, by the end of April if you want to surf the web on your Amazon devices, Mozilla suggests asking Alexa to 'open Silk.'
Users on 64-bit Windows who download Firefox can get our 64-bit version by default. That means you get a more secure version of Firefox, one that also crashes a whole lot less. How much less? In our tests so far, 64-bit Firefox reduced crashes by 39% on machines with 4GB of RAM or more.

Here’s the key thing to know: 64-bit applications can access more memory and are less likely to crash than 32-bit applications. Also, with the jump from 32 to 64 bits, a security feature called Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) works better to protect you from attackers. Linux and macOS users, fret not, you already enjoy a Firefox that’s optimized for 64-bit.
How do you get 64-bit Firefox?

If you’re running 64-bit Windows (here’s how to check), your Firefox may already be 64-bit. Mac program for exe files. Check your Firefox version (in the “About Firefox” window) and look for “(32-bit)” or “(64-bit)” after the version number:

- If you see “(32-bit)” and you are running Firefox 56.0 or older, updating to the latest Firefox version should automatically upgrade you to 64-bit.
- If you see “(32-bit)” and are running Firefox 56.0.1 or newer, then your computer may not meet the minimum memory requirement for 64-bit (3 GB RAM or more). You can still manually install 64-bit Firefox, if you choose.
How To Install Firefox For Fire Tv
If you need to run 32-bit Firefox or manually install 64-bit Firefox, you can simply download and re-run the Windows (32-bit or 64-bit) Firefox installer from the Firefox platforms and languages download page.
