Available now for download, it marks the first major browser update of 2026.
Mozilla is introducing a free built-in VPN feature in Firefox 149. The service comes with limitations, including availability in only four countries and a 50GB monthly data cap.

Mozilla's Firefox browser will cease support for Windows 7, 8, and 8.1 after February 2026. Users on these systems must upgrade to Windows 10 or later to continue receiving security updates. As an alternative, Mozilla suggests switching to a Linux-based operating system.
