Can v27 be slipped into Portable PM v26?

Unread post by coffeebreak » 2016-07-16, 14:25

Question -- since v27 involves a fair bit of change...
Is there any reason that it can't be slipped into a copy of v26 Portable PM?

Should be fine to replace the binaries in a V26 Portable with those of the pre-release.

One tip, however: if you use a language pack in Pale Moon 26, disable it beforehand. Otherwise, you'll see an XUL bug message.

Hmm, for some reason I get the error "Couldn't load XRE functions" when trying to slipstream v27 into a portable v26 folder. Any ideas?
