Mozilla Firefox 53 is scheduled to be released in March 2017 but users won’t be able to install in on Windows XP and Vista. If you’re still on Windows XP and Firefox is your main browser, you have two options: stick to Mozilla 52 or change your browser. The good news for Mozilla Firefox users on Windows XP is that as soon as Mozilla 53 is released, the previous version is going to be moved to the ESR (Extended Support Release) branch, meaning Mozilla will still provide updates for Firefox 52 until mid-2018. However, these updates will mainly be security patches without any new features and improvements. After that, Mozilla on Windows XP will be completely unsupported and insecure to use. But that won’t be a problem since everyone will most likely switch to a newer version of Windows by then. Mozilla Firefox is currently the only major browser that still supports Windows XP. Chrome and Opera have already left the building earlier this year. RELATED STORIES YOU NEED TO CHECK OUT:
