Same question about an ETA for 5.6 for the portable version. I am also really wondering why there is such a lag btw versions and why so many versions, with different features, exist on windows. It's the first time I see this development method. Totally confusing.

Dear support, Any news on this? Firefox 57 is now mainstream and I cannot upgrade because of the lack of the portable 5.6 version. Thank you.

Hi @Anshu kumar It's frustrating because it's so entirely unnecessary. It just makes absolutely no sense for both "standard" and "portable" versions of Enpass to exist. The "standard" version for Windows PC reached 5.6. weeks ago. There is no reason that shouldn't automatically yield the "portable" version for Windows PC as well (or visa versa). For Windows, the state of the WebExtension for Firefox on other platforms is simply irrelevant. For each platform, both the "standard" and "portable" versions really should be one and a same, with the only difference being a slightly different configuration made by the "standard" version's installer.. In our software shop we use Firefox developer (not beta or pre-release) version, which was automatically updated to v57 last week. Everyone using Enpass is now forced to switch browsers (and recreate all their browser configurations which for some of us is time consuming). I saw this situation coming from miles away. I've mentioned this problem on your forums multiple times already, the first time over a year ago. It baffles the mind that you guys can't give something like this higher priority. Like most of Enpass' design and architectural shortcomings, you seem to ignore it, despite there being no technical reason both "standard" and "portable" versions can't be in sync. In any development shop where efficiency mattered they would be. You needn't even be very technical to notice something is off. Looking at your website's list of supported platforms is enough: Windows, Windows PC, Linux, OSX, Blackberry, iPhone/iPad, Portable... which one of those is NOT actually a platform? I hope you guys can finally get around to fixing this architectural flaw. That would be at least as important as bringing the portable version up to v5.6.
