Since then, Mozilla Firefox has consistently featured in the top 3 most popular browsers globally and this is set to continue thanks to the release of Firefox 30.

At its public launch in 2004 Mozilla Firefox was the first browser to challenge Microsoft Internet Explorer’s dominance.

If you need to run 32-bit Firefox or manually install 64-bit Firefox, you can simply download and re-run the Windows (32-bit or 64-bit) Firefox installer from the Firefox platforms and languages download page.Mozilla Firefox is a fast, light and tidy open source web browser. You can still manually install 64-bit Firefox, if you choose.

Here’s the key thing to know: 64-bit applications can access more memory and are less likely to crash than 32-bit applications.

What’s the difference between 32-bit and 64-bit? How much less? In our tests so far, 64-bit Firefox reduced crashes by 39% on machines with 4GB of RAM or more. That means you get a more secure version of Firefox, one that also crashes a whole lot less. Users on 64-bit Windows who download Firefox can get our 64-bit version by default.
