After downloading and installing Firefox 8, I am unable to use it.

I use a connection by modem and Windows XP. A dialog box appears when I try to use Firefox which says that I have to restart the computer to complete a previous update of Firefox. I rebooted at least 6 times, but nothing has changed.

If there are problems with the implementation at day then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version and remove the Firefox program folder to remove all remaining files.

Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.

Uninstall your current version of Firefox if possible.

  • Do not remove the data of a personal nature when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.

Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

  • It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.

Your bookmarks and other profile data stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a relocation, but make sure that you do not select delete data of a personal nature if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Can not download and install Firefox 12. Download faints before that I can install it.

    I do everything I'm supposed to do, by selecting Save, then run, etc. I get no error message. When the download process is almost finished, I get a message on the issue of whether I am allowed to install it or not, then I select the icon administrator, since I am the sole owner of this PC. I read about it in another forum on the problems of downloading or installing Firefox, and as I understand it, that's what I'm supposed to select.

    After you make this selection, what little information soon disappears, however no more with things to tick boxes appear after that. Then, the whole process seems to stop for some strange reason.

    I'll try to guide you through 2 different methods for updating Firefox, hopefully one of them will work:

    Method 1:
    Go to the on the Firefox window. You can find it by clicking Help, then "about Firefox", or by clicking on the Orange button that says "Firefox" in the upper left of your Firefox window, by clicking on the arrow next to 'Help' and then clicking on "about Firefox". You can check the latest version here. Also, when you open this window, he should check updates and if an update is available, begin to download the.

    Method 2:
    Open Internet Explorer. Go to www.getfirefox.com. Click the big 'Download Now' button. Then, click Run. give him all the permits, he asks that it installs. It should update your Firefox to the current version.

    Firefox updates automatically, but releases are sometimes limited, which means after that a number of people have updated, the update is not automatically pushed for a few days to make sure that no major problems.

  • My firefox always opens with the three tabs, that I used when I downloaded and install firefox. How can I open one?

    When I downloaded Firefox for my new computer with Windows 10, I opened Firefox and follow the instructions to put everything in place to operate, including checking my email address. When I finished this process, I had 3 tabs open. Then, I closed Firefox.

    The next time I opened Firefox, 3 tabs opened. The additional 2 were on the same places they were until I closed Firefox.

    I closed two additional tabs before you navigate on several times. However, whenever I open Firefox, the same tabs will appear.

    How can I fix it? I want only 1 tablet to open.

    You can find the homepage here:

    • Tools > Options > general > startup: Homepage

    Firefox supports several home pages separated by ' |' symbol (pipe).

    If you do not keep the changes after a reboot or have problems with preferences, see:

  • When downloading and installing FireFox, I have something also downloaded inadvertently called App Enable and I would like to know how to get rid of it, please.

    The unwanted application resumes the 20% above the window of the browser with a series of unwanted ads, and when I click on one of my favorites, applications unwanted (AppEnable) sometimes intercepts the request and send me away. I tried to uninstall AppEnable, but it does not appear in the list of installed programs in Control Panel in Windows 7. I also scanned the computer for malware with Symantec EndPoint Protection and Ad-Aware, but no program can detect AppEnable.

    Sometimes a problem with Firefox can be a result of malware installed on your computer, you may not be aware of.

    You can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:

    Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one.

  • After download and install uniblue I dragged to the critical area analysis, kaspersky found no errors with it

    After I installed uniblue I'm nervous and dragged for a scan of the critical area moved to quaratine, kaspersky does report no harmful content that means its true? I doubt; 2 years ago, I installed and paid for a similar one of these called II also claiming to be a microsoft partner, and as I found it on the Web site using microsoft windows thought it would be great, a live chat with one or more of the support team when I had a problem the company maneuver had destroyed my lap top, basically. they shut me down but had a hold on the lap top I do not know how.  two years after I hope nothing and nobody don't, I have the man in the computer shop to do almost everything for me, it's expensive but there again so was II each microsoft site, I was told I was a fake not genuine microsoft, and of course i only knew I was with the little book and disc that came with the laptop not to mention the sticker slot; I even had the man computer repair look at him he told me reg tool was safe? How could it be?  Anyway I I I want my money back although they advised me not to try to find them even 2 years later, I would not hesitate to involve the police should I fall on them, is uniblue reg new name tools I wonder.  This whole experience cost me my sanity and made me paranoid, I left the computer alone for 4 months before someone came and he took; He must have a clean copy of vista and a new drive hard with what it costs I might have bought a new computer, but I need to know WHY! WHY! WHY! support team Microsoft has let me down is a microsoft machine, as is the key number I now know the reg tool had a lot to do with this now, however, I was treated like a criminal, not authentic, fake, you called me, I do not think that iv done a dishonest thing in my life... I have since learned that some people who work for microsoft as to harm innocents inexperienced users and distress, for fun... so what it is. last point, when I downloaded II I was running already windows live onecare or onetool why that detects not I was bogus company? Thank you for reading this long question answers I will read...

    Hello lindaHale,

    If you're talking about http://www1.uniblue.com/pc/ub/google/uniblue-offers/ so it's a real company. I have used their products and, I must say, I have not had problems with them.

    Registry cleaners can be a sensitive issue. Some people advocate them and other don't. I much prefer to edit my registry manually if the need arise, but in order to do that you should know what you're doing. Registry cleaner Uniblue gives you a list of items, that he intends to remove it, so it's really a case to verify that the software is remove rather than 'hope' the software deletes the correct registry entries. This, of course, does not only apply to the Uniblue. Each market unique registry cleaner should have its files to delete 'before' giving it the go checked before making changes to the registry.

    While I've heard of people having problems with the PC won't start not having used a registry cleaner (these are a registry cleaner, not just a specific), it is unlikely that a registry cleaner will damage your drive hard highlighy. As you have had the product for 2 years, I doubt that a court would support a refund. As most of the software I think 90 days are all too long that the warranty extends.

    In what concerns the staff of Microsoft (and I'm not a Microsoft employee) causing "damage to innocent users and distress for fun", it's their job to help the user to not hinder their. If you have a complaint against a specific member of the Microsoft team can I suggestions you contact Microsoft customer in your country and bring the complaint to their attention.

    This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.
