Pale Moon is a light and extremely functional web browser. From the visual point of view, it is very similar to Mozilla Firefox; and the similarities don't end here, because they both actually use the same rendering engine, called Gecko. Therefore, Pale Moon inherits everything from this engine, especially its speed.
Using Pale Moon isn't difficult at all, provided you are familiar with any other web browser. It allows using tabs to browse multiple web pages at the same time. Moreover, it lets you create tab groups for better tab management. It also supports private navigation so that no traces of your web navigation are stored on your computer. Also, it has a built-in download manager that allows pausing and resuming download tasks. Moreover, it can manage your passwords efficiently so you will not need to remember any of them; and in case you think this may compromise your privacy, you can protect them with a single master password. Furthermore, it allows synchronizing bookmarks using Firefox Sync or by exporting them to external devices. And if you don't find the default functionality extensive enough, you can always expand it by installing add-ons. By the way, there is also protection against unauthorized installation of add-ons.
In general, although not as widely used as such major browsers like Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, or Internet Explorer, Pale Moon is just as good or even better. And it also has the advantage of having a relatively light installation package. Unfortunately, as it is based on Firefox, it depends on the release of new Firefox versions, so it will probably lag behind it in terms of development. Besides, the default configuration of the address bar and the tabs somewhat limits the amount of space left for web pages themselves.
It allows you to rename file name extensions for single or all files in folder

Pale Moon is a fast, stable and customizable OpenSource browser with security options which other browsers didn't have (like the intern XSS filter).
From my side, I highly recommend Pale Moon!
Used to be good, but not anymore. Will look for a new alternative to Firefox.
