I use Asus Transformer T100TA with a touchscreen and Windows 8.1 on board. I really want to try Metro mode for Firefox, but I can't find the necessary button in the menu as described in the article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/quick-guide-firefox-windows-8-touch I tried Beta, Nightly, Aurora... neither of them had the button, as if I'm using Windows 7 or older OS. I've got exactly 10 buttons by default: new window, new private window, save page, print page, history, full screen, find, options, add-ons, and developer. How do I launch Firefox in Metro mode and how do I get the button back in its place?

hello Lampligh3r, unfortunately the metro version of firefox has been cancelled & won't be available in any current product due to a lack of interest of beta users in the testing phase: https://blog.mozilla.org/futurereleases/2014/03/14/metro/

oh :( It's so uncomfortable trying to close the tabs with fingers... I miss touch interface. Anyway, thanks for the info. I'm usually not a beta user, so I missed the news.
