Pretty much every other full release of FF has contained major bugs or stablility issues. Please add a "roll-back" function. If any software needs, it's FF.

The question says it all. This goes back several years, maybe 2008 or 2009. Seems like every other or maybe every third version has major issues. The latest is that Firefox sometimes never truly shuts down, resulting in a "Firefox is already running" message if one tries to run it again. This occurs on both Win7 64 Pro and Windows XP 32 and 64. But it's part of a larger and surprisingly consistent issue with overall browser reliability and stability - updates are always extremely dangerous because almost as often as not, they result in major stability or usability issues.

There *NEEDS* to be a rollback function, that allows users to roll back to the last or maybe second-to-last version. I have never encountered production/final release software with as consistent issues as FF, and my experience goes back to the early 80's.

In a while, firefox will be pretty stable, but right now its being remixed. After the australis theme, and Shumway are release, expect a clean firefox.

Also all the old versions of firefox are on the FTP servers, see the Install an older version of Firefox article for more.

First, thank you for your help. That's actually what I did do prior to posting and am continuing doing for my other FF installations, and version 24.0 all work fine across all machines and all OS'. The problem is that, even for the most casual user - let alone corporate customers and those who run more than a few computers for personal reasons (I fall into both) - the lack of a "rollback" feature is a serious problem. Firefox seems to be unusually buggy in the production versions - far, far...FAR more so than any other software I've encountered in my 32 years of comp experience. It's a safe bet that many are turned off by FF's bugs. The problem is so common and so pervasive that it seriously could make its own menu item by itself.

Thanks, though.

The reason why it is not encouraged to go back to a old release besides the current 17.0.10 and 24.10 ESR versions is due to the old releases being potentially vulnerable. The old releases do not have the security fixes that the current version has.

Well, then, it should have a warning, but I saw a business person say recently, that he is running a business, and must do work.

"if we had to tinker with our car under the hood, every time we want to go somewhere, where would we be?"

Rollback would surely be good, or at least directions.

And another thing: Why when I Click on Check For Updates, does FF START UPDATING??? Ever other product I have EVER seen, only CHECKS for updates! FF even starts installing that new release again after I kill it, and restart FF, and I had to go in and tear it out by the roots in the profile, after a lot of research. So WHAT'S Up WITH THAT? (I was an IE8 user and am shocked by some simple things over here that are missing or different that seem like basic stuff)
