At a time when most vendors plan to support Java, Flash and other plugins, for example, Silverlight and Quicktime, and some retail companies have already slowed down the support of these technologies, looking at the rich Internet resources available only when this plugin is installed in the browser.

If you take Google Chrome as an example, you can ensure that the browser supports Flash technology due to the integration of technology, but does not support other plugins. This means that Chrome users cannot deny access to the content of sites based on Silverlight, Java or other plugins.

Microsoft created Edge for Windows 10 without the support of these plugins. The browser also supports Flash as well as native integration.

On the other hand, Mozilla Firefox supports plugins, but Mozilla plans to stop using support (most likely in 2017).

It is clear to fans that browsers seem to support these plugins, because certain services and sites use them to display content. The answer is simple - this approach will improve the security and stability of the browser.

If you check the Firefox 45.0.2 crash statistics compiled by Mozilla over the current period, you can see that 4 out of 10 browser crashes are related to plugins.

What can you earn?

Computer developers face two problems:

1. Stability and security issues when plugins are installed or victorious.
2. Checking the availability of content to see which plugins are required.

While you can use a browser that supports all technologies, we recommend that you use another complementary browser for this purpose.

This is the only option if your main web browser supports plugins.

An additional share of content that makes it obvious that the plugin solves the content allows you to bypass the first problem.

Since you use an additional browser to view sites that require installation of plugins, such as streaming video services and Internet banks, the main browser does not suffer from stability problems and does not face the risk of attacks directed at data from the plugin.

What kind of browser do you vibrate?

Some browsers are not suitable for this purpose through plugin support, including Google Chrome and other Chromium-based web browsers - Vivaldi, Opera, and Microsoft Edge.

Among the applicants, Mozilla Firefox or another browser based on Firefox or Internet Explorer will be deprived. In the event that both products will work normally, we recommend that you still sign up for Firefox, since you can easily install a copy of the browser on a friend or use the same profile, including viewing content that requires plugins.

A good choice would be Firefox ESR – a special release of the browser with long-line support. The main reason for this recommendation is due to the regular release of security patches for ESR, and only the 8th cycle browser receives major functional updates.

The latest versions with additional support will allow you to continue supporting the plugins with the same versions as the original versions of Firefox. In addition, you will not have to deal with changes in browser functionality that are not present in the original versions.

In addition, you can use the portable version of Firefox to independently launch a browser session isolated from other browser installations.

Setting up

Please feel free to install Firefox ESR from our website. Re-download what you want and install the 32-bit version itself, since many plugins are not available for the 64-bit version.

If your primary browser is not Mozilla Firefox, skip the deadline.

You cannot launch Firefox ESR if another copy of Firefox is already installed on your system. To solve this problem, you need to do the following:

1. Close all versions of Firefox
2. Launch Firefox ESR with the parameters -p -no-remote. Once an icon appears on the desktop, you can right-click on it, select “Power” and add parameters to the end of the “Object” row.
3. Appear on the profile selection screen
4. Select “Create profile” and enter your entries. It is best to choose a descriptive name for your profile, for example “Firefox Plugins Enabled”
5. After this, edit the parameters for launching the shortcut -p "Firefox Plugins Enabled" -no-remote. This allows you to launch a browser with the profile of a new profile without having to go through the profile manager.

Now that Firefox is installed and configured, the time has come to install plugins.

Message for adding plugins

Below is a list of popular plugins:

1. Adobe Flash (don't forget to enable installation of third-party software on the Vantage page)
2. Microsoft Silverlight (do not forget to install Bing as a search engine and install MSN as your home page before installation).

Installation and adjustment

Install plugins as required by the system. Once installed, you may need to block these plugins in other browsers to ensure they are active only when you are using Firefox ESR.

If you are using the original version of Firefox, open the page about:addons In your browser, go to the plugins section, select all plugins and select the “Do not enable any” option.

In Internet Explorer, press Alt, select Services > Set Up Buddy. Select installed plugins and turn them off on the configuration page.

Zastosuvannya

You will no longer need to re-examine your browser that supports plugins, especially when accessing resources whose content makes the plugins visible, and you will freeze the main browser in all other cases.

Such servants began to gain more popularity and bring favor to their rulers. However, JavaScript is needed not only by programmers, but also by developers in order to fully appreciate the brightness of the site’s page.

This option is available in all modern web browsers and is always turned on. The function may not work in two cases: if it is deactivated by the user or if the update is unavailable. In both JavaScript applications, you will see notifications about errors as you try to launch the content.
