I searched for an official portable version of firefox and one of the first results was this https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1247235 anyways this seems dissapointing since he says we should only download from official sources and at the same time there is no official portable version, can i be honest.. this sucks. You know time passed since that thread was created (3 years...) but still no offfical version, why?

So it seems to most known source for firefox portable is this site: https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable I know you don't represent this website but still i have to ask how secure is it?

Also, how are chances mozilla will work on a portable official version? any plans?

Hi

I cannot speak for that site, but I would personally prefer to obtain software from official sources.

The people who answer questions here, for the most part, are other users volunteering their time (like me), not Mozilla employees or developers. If you want to leave feedback for developers, you can go to the Firefox Help menu and select either Share ideas and feedback… or Submit feedback…, depending on your Firefox version. Alternatively, you can use this link. Your feedback gets collected by a team of people who read it and gather data about the most common issues.

You can also file a bug report or feature request. See File a bug report or feature request for Mozilla products for details.

That is only true when it comes to the custom launcher as they have permission to use the official Windows builds of Firefox from Mozilla with the custom launcher that allows Firefox to be self contained. Hence the "portable" in being able to run completely off a usb flash drive for example.

It is the official builds with a custom launcher so it should be the same as what you download and use from www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/

The so called portable Firefox has been around since Firefox 0.8 Release back in April 2004 if I recall (though the sourceforge archive of portable Firefox only goes back to Fx 2.0.0.8. If Mozilla was going to spend resources to have their own portable edition of desktop Firefox (for Windows) then they would have done so long ago.
