Doesn’t work. Probably because of changes in current version. Any idea?

Serge,
I found that “DisableSplashScreen=true” is not enough. For some reason, the file needs the entire set of settings from “FirefoxDirectory” down to “RunLocally”.
Once I copied the ini file and just modified the DisableSplashScreen line, everything worked.

It’s getting me mad i can’t disable this silly splashscreen (i hate splashscreen).
I have a FirefoxPortableSettings.ini file in the same place than FirefoxPortable.exe.
My settings are the same than those in this post.
And it doesn’t work.
I’ve tryied a lot of combinaisons : [FirefoxPortable] or [FirefoxPortableSettings] in the parameter file ; file renamed “FirefoxPortable.ini” or “FirefoxPortableSettings.ini”, and so on, nothings works, it’s … annoying.

The file is now at Other\FirefoxPortableSource\FirefoxPortable.ini and needs to be copied to the same directory as FirefoxPortable.exe.
