Sorry for not following up on this sooner. Are you still seeing this issue? Note that the expected behavior for the tile has changed (bug 946990), but you should now be able to launch Metro Firefox by following these instructions: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-install-windows-8-metro-style-firefox Please reopen this bug if you are still unable to launch Firefox in Metro mode.
