There are several ways that Firefox itself could do this across all platforms. As long as you try to tie this into the installer itself this won't be available for platforms other than Windows and on Windows the account performing the installation can be a different account than the one used with Firefox which makes it impossible for the installer to work with the profile. : [[User:Robert Strong|Robert Strong]] 07:05, 27 April 2011 (PDT) | |||

The installer is not a good option
