The server 2012 have a "Metro" style start screen, and user expectations are likely to be that Metro for Firefox would work there. Reportedly it does not.
Hi,

I faced a similar problem with server 2012, the problem was that I was using the main administrator account, it didn't allow me to run Nightly in "Metro" style.

Here is what I did:
1. Run "secpol.msc"
2. Select Local Policy
3. Select Security Options
4. Enabled : User Account Control: Use Admin Approval Mode for the built-in Administrator account

Restarted and it works under Metro mode on Windows Server 2012.
