New
- Firefox will now offer to temporarily remember when users grant permissions to sites (e.g. geolocation). Temporary permissions will be removed either after one hour or when the tab is closed.
- A tab preview is now displayed when hovering the mouse over background tabs, making it easier to locate the desired tab without needing to switch tabs.
- When suggesting a default translation language, Firefox will now take into consideration languages you have previously used for translations.
- We’ve re-introduced the ability to navigate to the search engine home page when the search bar is empty by using
shift-enter/shift-click
- Fixed an issue where
CopyandPastecontext menu items intermittently were not enabled when expected.
- The following language is now supported by Firefox translation: Swedish
- The Tab overview (List all tabs) menu has received a new, refreshed icon.
Update: To get the update now, select "Help" from the Firefox menu, then pick "About Firefox." Mac users need to select "About Firefox" from the Firefox menu. If you do not use the English language version, Fully Localized Versions are available for download.
