Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox Build System :: General, defect)

Description

[DJ-Leith]

Attachment: Fx-41-0a2-DevEd-2015-07-03.png

OS: Windows 7 64bit
Browser: Firefox DeveloperEdition 32bit

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Aurora\firefox.exe"


Updated Firefox DeveloperEdition.

Became Firefox 41.0a2 (2015-07-03)

See "Fx-41-0a2-DevEd-2015-07-03.png" attached.

Update was done by the normal method: Menu, Help, "About DeveloperEdition".
If there is a newer version available the browser will update. 

Issue:

Actual:
Logo and some wording seems to indicate that the browser is Firefox DeveloperEdition.

However, "Nightly" is also used (see screenshot).

Expected:
Firefox DeveloperEdition (or Aurora) to be used NOT "Nightly".

Also, the word "Nightly" appears in the 'Windows Title Bar'.

Here is the expected screenshot for the 'real Nightly' Fx 42.0a1 (2015-07-03).

All seems to be 'back to normal' see screenshot.

I wonder if the cause was in this bug?

this should be fixed by bug 1178785. I saw the same behavior on my installation and it's gone now. Please reopen if you see the same thing now.
