Why is it listed here then? Did Firefox 3.0.1 also fix it?

TMP is working for me.

Seriously? Can you please tell me which version you have?

I have version 0.3.6.1.080416

EDIT: It's OK, I've fixed it.

Downloaded it again from http://tmp.garyr.net/tab_mix_plus-dev-build.xpi

Open WinRAR and then drag the file you just saved, "tab_mix_plus-dev-build.xpi" onto the open WinRAR window.

Drag "install.rdf" from the WinRAR window, onto your desktop.

Open notepad, then drag "install.rdf" from your desktop onto the open notepad window.

Look for the line that says em:maxVersion="3.0" Change it to em:maxVersion="3.*" (it's only in there once)

Exit notepad, and choose save when asked.

Now drag your new edited "install.rdf" on to the open WinRAR window, and click OK.

Close WinRAR.

Now drag "tab_mix_plus-dev-build.xpi" from your desktop onto an open firefox window, and click "Install".

Hope that all made sense, and is of help to some of you :)

    • Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print by Usama Jawad A few days ago, Microsoft released Windows 11 Experimental build 26300.8553, bringing a ton of enhancements such as Start menu customization, search improvements, Taskbar polish, and other minor UI tweaks. Another relatively major enhancement snuck deep within the change log was related to upgrades to the Windows printing experience. Now, Microsoft has shared more details about these benefits. For starters, Microsoft has renamed its Modern Print Platform to Windows Ready Print. The company believes that this name highlights its shift in strategy, which now focuses on modernizing, securing, and streamlining the printing experience for Windows devices. Some of the upgrades present in Windows Ready Print have already been seeded to customers and partners. This includes ending support for third-party printer drivers via Windows Update and transitioning towards the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) and the native Windows IPP printer driver. In line with these changes, new printer installations will default to Windows Ready Print on eligible devices starting from July 2026. However, Microsoft recognizes that not all environments will be able to migrate to this platform immediately, so it will allow users to choose between installing the printer via Windows Ready Print or the traditional OEM process. Users will be able to toggle this configuration through Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Printers & Scanners > Printer preferences. This control applies only to new printer installations, and its functionality can also be modified via Group Policy as follows: Launch Group Policy Editor Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates -> Printers Find and select 'Configure Windows Ready Print driver ranking' -> double click to open it Select 'Enabled' (if you wish to enable Windows Ready Print driver selection) or 'Disabled' (if you wish to explicitly disable Windows Ready Print driver selection). Select Apply Select OK Similarly, if you set up Windows protected print mode through the same setting in Windows 11, it will also default to using Windows Ready Print exclusively. Microsoft hopes that these improvements will help eradicate dependency on OEM-specific driver installation processes and simplify printer installations. We'll likely find out more about other tangible benefits in the coming months.
    • Hey what's about the proton vpn firefox extension ? It's not working today
    • On what though? Not Ray Tracing.
    • Agreed, but now my muscle memory immediately creates a layer for each text portion, so editing is made a little easier.
    • Happy for him, it is one of the first apps I install on a new Windows machine, been using it for years!
