About this tag
Firefox 146 is a stable release from Mozilla that introduces a built-in Backup Assistant for Windows 10 users, enabling local device backups to simplify migrations to Windows 11. The update also brings native fractional scaling support on Wayland, a dedicated GPU process on macOS, and the first implementation of ML-KEM post-quantum key material for WebRTC security. On Windows, legacy Direct2D rendering has been removed. Additional refinements include search and UI improvements, expanded access to experimental features via Firefox Labs, and platform hardening across Windows, macOS, and Linux. These changes are rolling out progressively as part of Mozilla's rapid release cadence.
