Pale Moon 6.0 info request

Post by bladerunner » 2011-09-02, 07:59

Hi all,
very glad to know about this forum. :D I'm writing this post in order to ask some info about Pale Moon 6.
On a machine with Windows XP SP3 32bit I'm running at the moment Pale Moon 5 with no any problem (I have been using Pale Moon since a couple of years), but not sure I understood what is better to do now: upgrade to Pale Moon 6 or "downgrade" to Pale Moon 3.6.20 (I saw a "note" on Pale Moon site saying this is the suggested version for XP)?

Thanks in advance to anyone will be so kind to reply.

If you are happy with Pale Moon 5.0 and how it works, I wouldn't worry about downgrading to 3.6.x versions, since you may run into issues with add-ons not being easy to grab, and even some profile issues if it doesn't go smoothly. Simply upgrade to 6.0 and you're good to go :)

Thanks a lot for your reply. I was wondering as well about add-ons and profile issues in case of downgrade. No any problem with Pale Moon 5.0, so I think now I will upgrade to 6.0; I have just to check if 1 or 2 add-ons has been updated, but I think so.

Congrats and thank you for all the great work.

Regards
