Currently, I am using Firefox 7.1 on Windows 7 Ultimate. Everything is fine.

I wanna try Aurora Browser. I downloaded and installed. Launching Aurora opens Firefox. Reading "about" section reveals that I am still running Firefox and not Aurora.

Can someone please help me to install Aurora browser. Thanking in anticipation.

hello . this is happening because , in order to run Aurora Build alongside Firefox , both need to use  their respective individual profiles .meaning , there should be a separate profile for Firefox and a separate for Aurora .else it will not work .as you have Firefox installed ,launching Aurora will launch the Firefox default profile .here is what you should try .uninstall the Aurora for now .type this in the start search bar , without the quotations -- " firefox -P profile_name -no-remote "and click enter . this would launch the Firefox Profile manager .click on - Create Profile .rename the profile you want ( like Aurora ) and choose the destination folder .click create and you are done .and also uncheck the option " Dont Ask at Start Up " .we want it to show at start up .! [ an important point , before creating a new profile and trying the new version , its important to backup the existing profile .you can use Mozback up or Firefox extension - FeBe . ]after the profile has been created , exit the profile manager .now install the Aurora .after the installation is complete , do not click on Launch or Start .just exit the installer .now go to your desktop icon of Aurora and launch it .this would open up the Profile Manager again .now click on the newly created profile ( like Aurora we named and created ) and click on Launch .your Aurora will be ready to go ..!  :)tell  if it worked or more help needed ....

to launch the Firefox profile manager , you can also type in and enter  --firefox.exe -ProfileManager into the Start Search box .

Hi Ari,This is probably a misconception. Aurora still uses the process name "Firefox" as it is just a browser to test upcoming Firefox releases and by all means still looks and acts like Firefox.Try launching from here:32 bit: C:Program FilesAuroraFirefox.exe64 bit: C:Program Files (x86)AuroraFirefox.exeIf that doesn't work, re-install Aurora .
