How to remove the firefox browser faststart123

Impossible to uninstall using windows7-> control panel-> uninstall/change
Cannot delete the firefox help->-> reset firefox troubleshooting information
in firefox cannot be deleted using modules on or off mode safe
in cannot be deleted using firefox firefox shortcut-> properties-> target (deleted text added to firefox...)

What do you mean with 'impossible' in your message above?

These do not apply, or you may not use them at all?

Start the computer in Mode safe mode with network support Windows (on the startup screen, press F8) as a test.

If there is problem with the shortcut on the desktop, then make sure that the shortcut is not set to read-only.

Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

If possible to uninstall your current version of Firefox to clean the Windows registry and settings in the security software.

  • Do NOT remove the "personal data" when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords including data profiles created by other versions of Firefox.

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

  • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
  • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.

Your bookmarks and other personal data are 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.

If you keep problems also create a new profile.

Make a check of malware with several malware scanning of programs on the Windows computer.
Please scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.
All of these programs have free versions.

Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.

    • How to remove the Firefox Start Page?

      Whenever I open Firefox newly put back, it opens the 'Mozilla Firefox Start Page' as well as my home page in a 2nd tab. I do not use Google. I don't want it on my browser session.

      Have you checked for many home pages?

      Versions of Firefox 4 + use a new build-in home page named Subject: House with a Google search bar on this issue (no internet access required for the loading of this page).

      What about: home page only shows a few clips and has a button to restore the previous session, as appropriate.

    • How to remove the Firefox orange button at the top left of the screen

      How remove Firefox orange button at the top left of the screen, it is a serious obstacle to my impulsive reflex hit "File" at the top left of the screen. Is throwing me off the coast of the big time, but also another source of frustration {absent these new version basic navigation features would be the first temporary fixed through 'extension' but until the next version makes it no longer work} [is not a plugin or the Correction-nazis will flood this thread!]

      So, how do you remove this huge blazing orange block with the label at the top left of the screen?

      I tried to ask this question in another thread, but apparently working away from home for more than one month is the once unthinkable and a sign of decline. This thread is now "archived" and here-car, locked. So I have to make a new thread to ask this again.

      A large number of text for a simple problem, but as I've learned since the update de.28 or other, nothing to do with Mozilla is simple. Especially the navigation and functionality. I have yet to wrap my brain around the fact that they slaughtered this program so much in so little time. If java and SWF plugins continued to work on the former, I would have NEVER updated!

      The community is much too complacent on these MAJOR issues.

      I think that I fixed it by changing the theme to default to something ugly, then return to default... Box orange GONE!

      Thank you for your time and patience.

    • How 'Safe' is the Firefox browser?

      Dear Sirs:

      I stumbled on the site of "horseshit" next to Microsoft than Microsoft Internet Explorer (MSIE) rates 4 / 4 rebuke then Firefox and Google Chrome browsers to 2.5 on 4 when it comes to browser Internet Security:

      http://www.yourbrowsermatters.com/#/browser-score

      Personally, I can't believe how Microsoft can not admit they have security issues in Microsoft Internet Explorer. Do really think that the people who are stupid to take everything they say "fact"? They don't cheat me with their detritus 'smoke and mirrors '!

      Internet Explorer offer even an automatic update feature at all. Microsoft has always been responsive is not Proactive when it comes to fix security holes in their software.

      When you get an update of Internet Explorer, you HAVE to restart the computer. Not very friendly!

      Microsoft seems to drag its ' feet when it comes to fix "Security vulnerabilities" in MSIE!

      Every time I have start Firefox at home or work, Firefox checks the updates to version that takes into account things such as 'Security issues', 'Bugs' and new features then I am wise when there is an update available.

      So, the truth is that Firefox handles fixing "Security vulnerabilities" and emits much better and much faster than Microsoft!

      No Internet browser does rate of 100% on a secure scale, but I find that Firefox is closest to that note that MSIE will never be.

      Firefox just came out with some excellent features well before the MSIE will never come out with them... Simple things like tabbed browsing took too long to add to Internet EXPLORER from Microsoft.

      The add-on NoScript and other add-ons free community have been extremely useful for Firefox. Even those who are updated more often than MSIE!

      Thanks for a great Web browser called "Firefox".

      Probably not the best place to discuss the issue, it can be considered off-topic. I may be biased as a Firefox user, but I think we're doing very well, even in comparing with IE and recognizing that IE had significant improvements over the years.

      There will be discussions on this topic elsewhere on the web, and my conclusions are that the article mentioned is a disguised unbalanced promotional item, IE bias.

    • How to remove the Firefox disk icon

      I uninstalled Firefox last week because I had problems with computer (fans) after the last update. Just a coincidence I think because I continued to have the same problems after uninstalling, so I reinstalled it today. However, I'm unable to remove an orange square drive? my desktop icon. I can only take it off if I leave Firefox. After opening Firefox again, I not only to get the icon back, but I also get training install area once again, that is to say... big box with blue and orange Firefox icon dictate to put in my file of the application. If I do this, Firefox re - install once again, and I start over. I restarted my computer hoping that would be useful, but it did not. If it's harmless, ok, but he was never there for the many years I have used Firefox and it's a pain to have to click on the box and also have the icon on my desktop, all the time.

      You're clicking on the stub Installer to launch Firefox after that you already installed. Please remove any installer stub after you have already added the icon in the Applications folder.

      You can then pin it to your doc so that Setup of heel will no longer launch icon.

    • How delete my favorites from the Firefox browser on a public computer, after you have synchronized my account to see during a browsing session?

      Here's what I'm trying to achieve:

      1. I use Firefox on another computer and synchronize my account to retrieve my favorites. (This works).
      2. After completing my browsing session, I sign my account of Firefox and my favorites are removed from the Firefox browser. (It does not).

      I tried the following options:

      (a) open the menu > Options > synchronization > uncheck the box "Bookmark" > OK. This doesn't erase my favorites from the browser, even if I close and open it again. They all appear.

      (b) open the menu > Options > synchronization > under Firefox account click on "Logout" > OK. This erases my favorites either, only necessecitates me connecting to synchronize again.

      I understand there was an option to 'untie this device', which can erase all data, including bookmarks, but I can't find it anywhere. I also read an article suggesting bookmarks etc. of the compensation is possible by removing your Firefox profile from a device, but I fear that this will remove the global options such as I will not be able to access it on my computer at home.

      Surely, there must be a means of siging in, then the Firefox account on different computers, as you can with the email without leaving all your bookmarks etc open for other users to see later? I am transfer to Firefox Chrome precisely because it doesn't have the ability to do (creepily) and to clear my favorites from the browser of a friends, I had to uninstall Chrome on his computer!

      Any help would be greatly appreciated.

      (A) that in the future, even when logged in, your bookmarks will be re - synchronizes the means of action.

      (B) action means that no synchronization of your account will occur in the future unless you disconnect.

      I hope this has helped you!
      Good navigation!

      Hey Tatianarox,

      I think I know what you are trying to accomplish. You should try to hide the menu bar and using the Firefox button. Which should be quite substantially reduced the border along the top.
