Stop-gap measure until r3dfox gets a update server for now, kinda inspired by LibreWolf's solution to this issue

Sounds good, thanks

pretty cool stuff, I was wondering if something like this existed, and now it does.

thanks!

Last week I downloaded r3d fox for my W7 and I managed to update to v148.0 from Source Forge but I'm not sure how to enable the automatic updater.. Can someone please explain to me step-by-step (like I'm a 5 year old) how to Run CreateTask.ps1?? I don't tend to log in to my browser - does it only work if I log in?

(Also, I can't seem to get 3rdfox to add Yahoo to Mailto the way I have it in FF (can't remember if I edited handlers.json file to do that).
Thanks!

The .ps1 is just a Powershell script, you should be able to double-click it or right-click and select Powershell from menu.

As far as it "doing anything", you have to have a third-party program called Python installed, which also usually requires setting path variables.

Do you have PYTHON installed ???

It does not require you to be logged into your browser.
It only requires you to be 'logged into' the WINDOWS USER ACCOUNT from where you ran the .ps1 to create the task within that USER ACCOUNT.
