Firefox.exe is suddenly gone, so ie11 tried to access the internet to reinstall, but it will not download - now what?

Hello everyone, newbie here with a weird problem. Looooong time FF user and could care less about IE or Chrome. I recently did a backup of my Acer Aspire One with Win7 Starter user, as I have before, to an external and everything seemed fine except when I tried to launch FF, I received a message that the shortcut can not locate "firefox.exe", I want to remove the shortcut? WTH? So I try the search of the entire computer for him and of course he went. So I try to reinstall FF with an .exe from a previous installation of upgrade and even though she acted as if it might work, but then I got the message "interrupted installation". Bleerg.

OK, so I opened IE11 here to download a new copy from scratch. IE seems to find the download page of Mozilla very well, but it displays a blank window. I see some elements of the download page, but not the necessary parts, which are visible on IE on my Toshiba (which I did to see what missed me). I tried the same thing with Chrome, just in case IE has, um, ignorant of Mozilla. No, same issue with her.

So now I run CCleaner Registry Cleaner to see what might appear and this is there are a handful of questions firefox.exe. As I am on my Toshiba to ask for help, I have to manually type in what I show on my Acer:

Just before running CCleaner, I did all Windows Updates pending with the exception of one published this week. I always wait a month. I have fixed all issues selected.

But what I saw was everything about IE11.

I uninstalled I could FF but I still have the Service of Maintenance of Mozilla installed 29.0.1, if this is of any help to him who can give me help.

I briefly considered emailing Setup files to myself so I can open gmail via IE11 to see if I could sneak this way FF, but I think that gmail does not .exe attachments.

Any help brain big FF and FF community members big brained will be highly appreciated.

Uninstall the Firefox on your computer {web link}
DO NOT REMOVE your profiles.
After that, restart the computer. Do a registry scan / repair.

In addition,

Using another computer, Download Firefox Download Full Version for all languages and systems {web link} on a USB key. After that, plug your system on the go.
