Thanks Myk But I am bit confuse here. If we go by this way /path/to/firefox --app /path/to/application.ini. First there may be a possibility that Firefox is not installed and if it is installed and someone updates the firefox to latest version and the max ver. defined under application.ini is the older one, then the application won't start and will through the version mismatch alert. Isn't there any method or terms defined where I can ship the firefox directory in the application folder rather than re-brading it or should we by default set the max version in application.ini to a higher value i.e 99 or if you can suggest any other way. Also if we can ship firefox directory in the application folder "-app" thing will always work with the last firefox version supported. Any help will be useful. Thanks in advance.
