  Hello!

  It's happened since I got a virus a months ago who was preventing the computer to start. She came back from the repair shop and it begins again now. But after a few hours of using Firefox, this message pop up at random:
  "Windows cannot find"C:\Windows\Program Mozilla Firefox Firefox\firefox.exe". Make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again. »
  Example: http://www.risingroad.com/foxhound/faq/images/Windows%20cannot%20find%20firefox.jpg

  and Firefox still work after this message appears. I already uninstalled and installed new Firefox completely, and the message still appears upward. What this mean and is it harmful to the computer?

  I'm on Windows 8

• How coud I adjust Firefox to hold all the data record (D:\Program Mozilla Firefox Firefox\)

  My computer is personal. Not mean that it has only a single user. So I don't want my browser to save something in c:\Documents and Settings\. Is it possible to change the default path for the bookmarks, cookies, passwords, history, settings, addons and so on?

  The case for me would be if Firefox records everything in his file (D:\Program Mozilla Firefox Firefox\)

  PS Sorry for my English.

  Hello Vadim.

  I can understand clearly what you want, and although I don't have an answer to your question ("is it possible to change the default path for the bookmarks, cookies, passwords, history, settings, addons and so on?"), I can show you something that will solve your problem: Firefox Portable. This is a modified version of Firefox (fully compatible in 99.9% of cases) which will store your whole Firefox in a specified folder, so you can stored here where you want (Yes, including the profile folder), whether your Program Files folder, or a USB key. It is a little handy which is updated almost as fast as the normal Firefox (like a day or two after, in most cases).

  If you need help setting up (it is very easy, anyway), you must use their support section. Your own using Firefox in Firefox Portable profile should be no problem too.

• Validation ERROR: C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox\AccessibleMarshal.dll and do not install

  I downloaded and extracted the latest ESR (Version 10.0.7) file this morning. Run the SETUP program. EXE with no command line switch fails to install Firefox. SAT Setup log indicates that the installation took a second full run. In the Setup log, I see the following:

  Registration DLL

   ** ERROR Registering: C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\AccessibleMarshal.dll **
  

  In the folder C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox, there's an uninstall as well as an install.log file folder. Any other file or folder there. Mozilla Firefox will appear in programs and features, but displays an icon associated with an unknown application.

  I am connected with an account with limited rights but the execution of the INSTALLATION. EXE executable from an elevated command prompt. That should be enough to raise the registration of the DLL.

  Running on Windows 7 SP1 with all updates applied. I noticed several other people who have experienced this problem, but nobody has a solution.

  Thanks in advance for any help!

  Do a clean reinstall and remove the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a new copy of Firefox.

  • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Installation_directory

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

  • ESR 10.0.x Firefox: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/all.html

  Uninstall your current version of Firefox, if possible, the settings in the software security and cleaning of the Windows registry.

  • Do NOT remove the data personal when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because all profile files will be deleted and you will also lose your personal data such as bookmarks and passwords from other versions of Firefox profiles.

  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.
  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox

  Your bookmarks and other profile data is stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but make sure that 'delete personal data' is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
