Here the appreciated i686 build appends entries to POPUPLOG.OS2, albeit I haven't rebooted yet. But I did type the matching SET LIBPATHSTRICT and SET BEGINLIBPATH commands before typing FIREFOX.EXE:

XUL.DLL is the distributed one, without markng it as 'high' yet. The LIBCX0.DLL in use is, FWIW:

Dave Yeo:
Yes, you need to update libcx and reboot. The one I have is dated for new years eve 2018,version 0.64-1
xynixme:
Solved. The only technically required change since FF 45.5 for i686+ CPUs. I didn't use the newer, experimental LIBCX0.DLL. Just curious: is the icon of FF 45.9 (i686, one (ZIP file) size fits all, including sometimes limited disk sizes) a new FF icon?
Generic remark, without FFTURBO.EXE in use: closing FF too soon after deleting the cache files, before a Pentium 4 desktop CPU calmed down, triggered the quick creation of a TRP file. Apparently in a section of code related to closing FF. Patience seems to be an obvious solution.
Dave Yeo:
The icon hasn't been changed in a while, and then it was just making it lower bit depth to work around a lxlite issue, which corrupts 32 bit colour icons.
Yes others have reported that it is best to wait till the CPU calms down before closing.
David Graser:
Why not take the icon that comes with the ArcaOS browser and delete the 24 bit icons and leave the 8 bit. It still looks good on the desktop. I have attached the icons I was talking about
