Installation of JonDoFox

The installation integrates the JonDoFox profile in a locally installed Firefox, so that JonDoFox operates seamlessly with your system. Any previous Firefox configuration you may have created remains untouched by the installation. After installing, you may choose between both your profile and the JonDoFox configuration at each start of Firefox.

First, install Firefox on your system if you haven't done so yet. After that, you may install JonDoFox.

Alternatively you may choose a portable installation "for travelling" on a removable drive (only for Windows). This will install a portable Firefox too.

2. Open the file by double clicking. Then launch JonDoFox_Install with another double click.

Notice: The installer may also be used for deinstalling the previously installed profile, but beware:
Please do not change the entries that the installer creates. Otherwise, a clean installation cannot be guaranteed! Also, only use the installer for deinstallation if you have also used it for installing JonDoFox.
