Mozilla is going to release a Firefox version that will run in both the Metro (Modern UI) and desktop mode of Windows 8, as well as supporting older Windows versions.
"The team is at work building a browser for the Metro environment, but we don't have new test builds to share at the moment," a Mozilla spokesperson told V3 in a statement.
"Our plan is to have a single Firefox executable that will offer users both the classic browser interface as well as one tailored for Metro."
Further, Mozilla said it expects the browser to be delivered as a single executable that will also run on Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7. Windows 8 has been making life difficult for browser developers, according to reports, because of the problems in accommodating both the Metro-style user interface and the traditional desktop environment.
