Download Firefox Nightly here. Important: Make sure that Nightly is set as your default browser or else it won't launch in Windows 8 mode.

Hi there! Thanks for your interest in testing Firefox Nightly on Windows 8. We’ve been working hard to bring the Firefox experience to Windows 8 and have an early version we'd like to share with you. This Firefox is an experimental touch-friendly version optimized for Windows 8 (of course, you can always enjoy the stable, desktop version of Firefox in the traditional, desktop mode).

With that said, you may bump into issues as we continue to improve this early version. With your help, we'll be able to quickly fix the glitches and bring Firefox to yet another platform for you to enjoy.

Helping out is easy, just follow these 2 quick steps:

1. Follow our guide to install Firefox Nightly and and set it as your default browser. 2. File a bug on Bugzilla whenever you encounter issues while browsing.

If you have any specific questions about testing on Windows 8 mode please email metro@mozilla.org.

Happy testing!
