Hello everyone!

On 10/3/24 Mozilla wrote in a KB: "Mozilla will provide security updates for Firefox 115 ESR until at least March 2025, when the position will be re-evaluated."

According to "https://data.firefox.com/dashboard/hardware", over 7.5% of Firefox users are currently using Windows 7. Will Mozilla extend the end of support for 115 ESR again or will it end next month?

Thanks and regards, Martin

I guess it's not decided yet.

We decided to extend support for ESR 115 only on Windows 7-8.1 and macOS 10.12-10.14 up to March 2025. We will re-evaluate this decision in early 2025 and announce any updates on ESR 115's end-of-life then.

Mozilla decided to extend updates only shortly before the Fx 115.16.0esr release as it was originally going to end at Fx 115.15.0esr. Since the extension was about six months, I would not be surprised if they extend updates again it will only be for another some six months.

Mozilla has supported the eol Windows 7, 8, 8.1 for two years longer from when Chrome/Chromium based browsers dropped Windows 7, 8, 8.1 back in Jan/Feb 2023.
