help with noscript 5.1.8.

Post by MAOTRO »

Hello everyone, I do not know if the topic is in the correct forum, but I have not found a way to put it somewhere else.
I use firefox 52.8.0 on my netbook with XP, THE VERSION NOSCRIPT is 5.1.8.4., My question is .... how do I update the database? I have seen that the latest version of NOSCRIPT does have that option, but the one I use does not. I remember it's a netbook, that's why I have XP installed.
Thanks for the great job making this addon

NoScript 5.1.8.4 is outdated. Please upgrade to latest NoScript Classic from https://noscript.net/getit (5.1.8.5 at time of writing).

What database?

Thanks barbaz for answering, I have updated NOSCRIPT to version 5.1.8.5,
* in this version for firefox esr are the updates automatic?
* Should I wait for firefox ESR, change to higher version in June 2018 to have new addon updates?
Once again, THXS for everything.

Yes, if you have automatic updates enabled.

Why? Either addon updates will be compatible with Firefox 52 ESR, in which case you can use them as soon as you like, or they will require newer Firefox versions, which aren't compatible with Windows XP.
