I would like to use Mozilla as my primary browser on my Dell tablet using windows RT 8.1. It says the app has been installed but does not show up anywhere. I do get one compatibility statement, that it is installed and ok for use then when I try to use it; I receive another that's it isn't compatible. I exclusively use Mozilla on all my other computer systems at home/work but cannot use it on my Dell Surface TabletPC.

hello, unfortunately firefox will not be available for windows rt - originally this was due to the limitations but in place by microsoft for third-party browser makers. now that the RT platform is pretty much dead anyway, there won't be any development by mozilla towards this direction...
