This article is for people who want to upgrade your browser Firefox, we know that
there are two usable versions of these browsers a 32-bit and 64-bit depending on your
operating system will need to update your browser; there are advantages of 64-bit
version as the speed, security and stability; the main benefit of running a 64-bit
application is that it is not limited to using 4 GB of memory. If you have more than 4
GB of physical memory installed, Firefox may benefit from the extra RAM.
Technically like any other software to use 64 bits to move information causes changes
in speed, security and stability of the system.
1) Speed: taking advantage of new technologies that invade processors increases the
speed of processes.
2) Safety: taking advantage of the extra bits that serve to better prevent any attack
and improves the effectiveness of existing defense systems.
3) Stability: systems became more confident this is reflected in the failure rate with
applications and processes in general.
To move to the 64-bit version if you are in the 32-bit is required to possess an
operating system 64-bit therefore you will need to confirm this.
In the Basic data section of the application, find the User Agent entry and take a look
at the information included in parentheses. If you see Win64; x64 means that you
have the 64-bit version of Firefox and if you see WOW64 means that you own 32-bit
