Mozilla recommends that Windows XP RTM or XP SP1 users upgrade to Windows XP SP3. Microsoft now only supports the provision of security patches for Windows XP SP3. Microsoft also no longer supports Windows XP SP2. Microsoft stopped supporting Windows 2000 in mid-2010, XP and XP SP1 in 20. Microsoft gave three " retired" versions of Windows operating systems a few years ago. After 12, Mozilla laid down the hammer and said no future versions would be made to. Mozilla is currently switching to Visual Studio 2010 so it cannot build Firefox for previous operating systems. This is the last version of Firefox that will work with Windows 2000. Asa Dotzler, Director of Firefox, said the company reached the final decision on this support a few months ago. Mozilla said the change will help it further improve Firefox's performance on Windows, making the most of the new Windows system.Īnalysts are not surprised by this decision by Mozilla, because three years ago Mozilla mentioned it.
Firefox 13 does not support Windows 2000, Windows XP RTM (release to manufacturing, mid-2001 build) or Windows XP Service Pack 1.įirefox 12 will be released on April 24, 2012, and the next version will be released on June 4, 2012.
Mozilla also reiterated that it will stop providing security updates for the 2-year-old version of Firefox 3.6 in April 2012.įrom Firefox 13, Mozilla's web browser requires a minimum of Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2).
