Today, Mozilla has released version 138 of its popular Firefox web browser for Windows, macOS, and Linux. The biggest draw of this update is the profile manager feature that makes it easier to separate work, play, and everything else. With separate user profiles, you’ll be able to have separate bookmarks, tabs, browsing history, and more.
Profile management has long been one of the defining benefits of Chrome and other Chromium-based browsers over Firefox. Although Mozilla has tried to bridge that gap with features like Containers, and others have tried to replicate profiles via extensions, none of the solutions have ever offered quite the same benefits and convenience.
Windows users will also be pleased to see that the designs of menus and windows have been adapted to fit the rest of the operating system. Other minor features include tab groups and weather suggestions in the address bar. Otherwise, the rest of the update mainly treats us to bug fixes and security issues addressed.
If you want to check if you’re running the latest version, navigate to About Firefox in the menu. If you have an older version, simply restart the browser and the update will be installed automatically. Alternatively, go to the Firefox download page and manually download the latest version for Windows, macOS, or Linux.
