• How to temporarily close Firefox?

  You try to view a youtube and he says I have to download an update from Adobe. When I try to download the update, it stops and says that I have to temporarily close Firefox to continue the download.

  Always better to go directly to the source of update of Plugins. You can never be certain you receive from another site; Although Youtube is usually a trustworthy site.

  There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash:

  • an ActiveX version for IE only
  • a plug-in version for most of the other browsers including Firefox
  • On a Windows system, you must always update both individually.

  You don't seem to have the Plugin for Firefox installed version. If you did, in the Add-ons > Plugins you would see "Shockwave Flash (version)". If 'Shockwave Flash' is there and is disabled, click on the button "activate".

• How can I re - install firefox without losing my data. It is infested bame ad.

  Firefox is infested with "ads name.

  How can I get rid of it or how can I
  Re-install firefox without losing any data?

  There is a rash that goes around, and the solution is not yet clear 100%. I suggest try reinstalling this way:

  Clean reinstall it

  We use this name, but it is not about the deletion of your settings, it comes to ensure that program files are-own and contain no alien code files. As described below, this process does not disrupt your existing settings. Don't uninstall NOT Firefox, that does not need.

  (1) download a fresh Installer for Firefox 37.0.1 of https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ in an ideal location. (Scroll down your preferred language).

  (2) close Firefox (if applicable).

  (3) to rename the program folder

  (Windows 32-bit folder names)

  C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
  

  TO

  C:\Program Files\OldFirefox
  

  (Windows 64-bit folder names)

  C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
  

  TO

  C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
  

  (4) run the installer you downloaded in the #1. It should automatically connect to your existing settings.

  Any improvement?

  Note: Some plugins can only exist in this OldFirefox file. If it is missing something essential, present in these files:

  • \OldFirefox\Plugins
  • \OldFirefox\browser\plugins

  Hello Donna, sorry you're in trouble. I wanted to make sure you have Firefox set as default browser on Windows? We have here an article that walks through how to do it:
  https://support.Mozilla.com/en-us/KB/how+to+make+Firefox+the+default+browser

  If you have Firefox by default, it could be a registry problem that would need to be configured.

  I hope this helps.

  Kind wishes

• How can I change where firefox stores the logs?

  I run 'Fox on a flash drive, because it allows me to keep my history, bookmarks, etc. all together while using ' Fox on several different computers.

  I learned recently that Firefox was leaving newspapers on the hard drives of each computer, that I ran it, even from the flash drive. It is a bad idea to several points of view, including privacy and security, so I want to configure my software to write all these newspapers directly in the flash player that I run on, nothing is placed on the computer HARD disk.

  How can I do this? For completeness, the path where Firefox is writing information looks something like one of the following:

  C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Mozilla
  C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla
  C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Temp

• How can I temporarily move a few bookmarks Bookmarks toolbar

  I have a folder on the bookmarks with many bookmarks in her bar. Don't have no need now, I don't want to delete it either. The best solution would be to move this folder with bookmarks for example the folder my documents, which resides on another partition. When I need it in the future, then I would put this folder in the bookmarks bar. In Internet Explorer, these operations are very simple to perform. How can I achieve this in Firefox?

  Yes, you must open the backup copy of the HTML in a text editor or an HTML editor and make the required changes and delete bookmarks not desired to obtain a backup copy with only the search bookmarks.
