Title: (SOLVED)Waterfox Browser install
Post by: chushingura on March 08, 2022, 07:50:26 AM

I successfully downloaded (and use) Waterfox browser on Linux Mint. However, using the same process on Lite doesn't work. ie. Extract to downloads, Create launcher, changing working directory from     /download/waterfox to waterfox/waterfox, create. Help Please.

Usually, extracting files to /opt is a better idea. How did you create the launcher?

Did you get this issue worked out? I just read an old article about the Waterfox browser and it really looks interesting.
