Help us test Firefox Nightly on Windows 8
Hi there! Thanks for your interest in testing Firefox (Nightly) on Windows 8. We’ve been working incredibly hard to bring the Firefox experience to the Windows 8 mode. Firefox Nightly on Windows 8 is the first version available on Windows 8 mode (note: there's two versions, one for desktop and one for the new Windows 8 mode). If you have a Windows device, that means you’ll be one of the first to try Firefox Nightly on Windows 8 mode! With that said, issues should be expected as this product has yet to be widely tested. Without your help, we won't be able to make Firefox the best browser in the world. In order to make things run as smoothly as possible, please follow these steps:
1. Please download the Nightly version for Windows 8 Metro this guide will help you through installation. IMPORTANT: Make sure that Nightly is set as your default browser or else it won't launch in Metro.
2. Use your new browser regularly! Watch videos, send emails, purchase things online, search for anything you can possibly imagine.
3. Whenever you encounter a bug, file it on bugzilla. If filing bugs is not your idea of a good time, that’s okay! Your everyday use will help make this version of Firefox better.
If you have any specific questions about testing on Metro please email metro@mozilla.org. You can also check out the Firefox builds forum or The Burning Edge blog for up to the minute updates to Nightly.
Happy testing!
