After some-more than twin years of work, Mozilla has scrapped a bid to build a Metro-specific chronicle of Firefox for Windows 8, observant that users have shown roughly no interest.
Microsoft designed what it formerly called a Metro interface for touch-screen inclination like
tablets and introduced it with
Windows 8 along with a chronicle of Internet Explorer designed to run on it. Two years ago, after winning a discuss with Microsoft over either it even could be probable to pierce a complicated third-party browser to Metro, Mozilla embarked on a Firefox for Metro journey.
But it’s over for now, although
Firefox will mothball a formula in box it needs to change a mind.
