    When it works, it's usually great. However, I can't get it to install anymore on my Win 11 laptop. It stays stuck on the "Connector Installation" screen. I can no longer use it and I've tried everything (removing all registry entries of firefox, uninstalling Visual C++ and reinstalling from the extension setup, uninstalls and reboots until the cows come home). This was a great failed experience. I hope it works again someday. Better yet, Mozilla...bring native PWA to Firefox! It's essential!

    Forced separate profiles from my base Firefox is a deal breaker. I have to log in twice on all my websites. Just makes everything a pain to set up, especially when I need to reinstall Firefox elsewhere.

    Sigh, I really want to move on from Chrome but the way PWAs are handled there is the only thing keeping me on there.

    I installed the PWA but even if I install the deb package (OS Ubuntu 24.04 Firefox flatpak version) I cannot select the runtime installation

    Flatpak is not supported because it doesn't provide the necessary APIs yet. You can read more details here: https://pwasforfirefox.filips.si/help/faq/#why-doesnt-the-extension-find-the-native-connector-on-linux

    You will need to use normal Firefox (from Mozilla website or their DEB repository) instead.

    Please check troubleshooting tasks (https://pwasforfirefox.filips.si/help/troubleshooting/) to obtain the extension and native logs and create an issue on GitHub. Also, Windows 7 is no longer supported, so you might experience issues because of that.

    Tried to use it for over an hour. It worked fine for like 20 minutes but then no anymore. I installed Twitter first and for some reason all other sites that install only open Twitter.

    Abre o webapp no perfil "default" ao invés do "default-release" o que atrapalha o uso, por exemplo quando você vai abrir um link.

    Unfortunately, I don't really know what do you mean by this. PWAs use completely separate profiles, so it shouldn't matter which profile you use on your main Firefox. If you want to sync data between your main profile and PWAs, I recommend you use Firefox Account/Sync or a third-party sync solution.

    If you mean that opening a link from PWA in a default browser opens your link in a wrong profile, then go to "about:profiles" in your main Firefox and set the correct profile as default.

    If you think there is some bug or other problem, please open an issue/discussion on GitHub (and write it in English if possible).
