    I think it was Josey, some time ago, who said, dont install x64 but x32 whatever you are on. Does this still hold good, mine has just, this minute, gone onto 58.01 but x64 bit is in.
    Not me, X64 is way better than 32bit. What I said was it is better to remove the old release and then install the new one. It makes for a cleaner Profile.

    understood. It was not in reference to the uninstall, reinstall - whoever said it mentioned that, at that time, it was best to use FF in 32 bit mode rather than 64 on a 64 system. Maybe FF has improved on that score over several updates? I currently am running FF as defauly 58.1 x 64. Seems a lot faster than it was and that damned regular warning that FF was still open, even though I had closed it, seems to have gone.

    I have used 64 Bit Firefox for a few years without any issues.

    Good morning, Elbmek. With one of these latest updates, FF gained the ability to install 64 bit on x64 computers. I was using 32 bit, but when this became possible, FF changed mine to 64bit. I haven't had any problems so far.
