Impossible to uninstall firefox 31.1 on windows 7

I tried to uninstall it using the option of area programs and features in Control Panel, as well as the case of uninstall in the program files folder. I ran this time as a normal user and as an administrator without success. I have will go through the process of uninstallation and finishing and asks me to restart my machine. When I reboot, the program is still their and won't disappear.

I'm trying to uninstall and reinstall Firefox to solve another problem. I get a record of required adobe flash when ever access to a site using flash. I have already installed the latest version of Adobe Flash and I even re-installed. I kept getting the same error. I don't get this error when I use Chrome or Internet Explorer.

I also downloaded the latest version of Firefox and installed to see if that would correct any corruption and that didn't work either.

Thanks for the tip, but we just found out the problem. Our work installed McAfee adapted that kept us from the uninstall and install programs, even though we had administrator rights. We had to stop McAfee services so that everything works correctly.

  • Impossible to uninstall Firefox.

    I was not able to uninstall Firefox on Win 8.1 computer. Before, I made a recent update from version 36.0.4 to version 37.0.1 and have had problems using the new version version 36.0.4 worked very well before. However, when I look at the list of installed programs in Control Panel of windows, that I noticed that is Firefox version 15.0 and 15.1 which are extremely old. When I try to use the windows uninstaller, they will not remove. Furthermore, when I tried to run the file helper.exe too, it will not run. Is there another way I can remove this last version of firefox, which I do not see and also delete that list of old versions too?

    If Firefox never connects to websites on your system Windows 8.1, you can see the ideas contained in these articles:

    In addition, if you think that Firefox or a part of its program files may have been damaged during the update, you can re-do as follows:

    Clean reinstall it

    We use this name, but it is not about the deletion of your settings, this is to ensure that program files are clean. 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 64-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
    

    (Windows 32-bit folder names)

    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    

    TO

    C:\Program Files\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:

    I love having new things first.  lol so when Windows 10 came out I had to update immediately.  I should have checked to see if my programs and drivers were compatible.  They were not.  So I uninstalled 10 and I went back to 7.  The only thing that seems to have been affected was my iTunes program.  For some reason, I think that is the iTunes Installer has been moved or corrupted.  The first time a new update was released for iTunes, my computer downloaded the new update, but it was impossible to remove the old program iTunes.  So I tried to remove iTunes from Add/Remove programs function in the control panel.  I get the following:

  • Impossible to uninstall Officejet 6000 E609 in Windows 10

    Our old Officejet 6000 has been installed long ago (wired, not Wireless no, no ethernet).  The printer has been named our son to use in College with his Macbook.  Since then, our two laptops and one desktop have been improved to 10 Windows.  By doing some cleaning on my laptop, I tried to uninstall the HP Officejet (there many other HP programs associated with it), but it won't uninstall.  Select the option to have all associated programs uninstalled also results in the computer laptop restaring and having still uninstalled!

    How can I uninstall these programs HP?  Try safe mode does not work either.  I know it's no big deal to most people, but I don't see the need for these unnecessary programs to take place on my computer (s).

    Thank you

    Hello list,

    What operating system is your PC upgrded to?

    More likely the installed software is supposed to or an earlier version of windows and Windows 10, so the uninstall program does not work as expected.

    If your operating system has been upgraded to Windows 7, run the utility of following deletion as described below:

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/softlib/software12/COL31334/bi-77812-3/OJ6000vE609_Scrubber_14.exe

    If your PC has been upgraded to Windows 8 or 8.1 Windows use following instead:

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/softlib/software12/COL31334/bi-110150-1/OJ_SF_6000_E609_140_408_Scrubber.exe

    Note: If you don't know what version is installed, just follow the two tools.

    Once the folder extracted, launch Uninstall_L4.bat.

    You will see a dialog prompt black box, if noting else happens after 15 seconds press enter once and that the withdrawal will begin.

    Once all completed dialog boxes, restart your PC as instructed.

    Kind regards

  • Impossible to uninstall Norton and McAfee on Windows 8 antivirus programs.

    Original title: No place to enter the password administrator Windows 8

    I read some previous discussions but did not get any answers that have worked for me.  I have a new laptop and the account that somehow, I created by default to "prompt".  I don't want to continue to use Norton or McAfee, but computer won't allow me to install anything else and it will not let me delete these two programs.  Any action asks me to enter a password to Admin, but there's no need to enter the 'yes' is grey outside and not clickable.  I can't find anywhere to change anything.  Help, please.  I have wireless internet so my computer is at risk until I get my new installed program.

    To do this, follow these steps:

    f. type net user administrator and then press ENTER.

    Note: Please replace the tag with a password that you want to set for the administrator account.

    a. in the built-in Administrator account, press the Windows key + X and click on (Admin) command prompt.

    b. type net user administrator / active: No.and then press ENTER.

    c. restart the computer and check if the problem is resolved.

    Note: Please, be very careful with the built-in Administrator account. Changes need to be made very carefully and it should always be disabled after use.

    Hello

    The easiest way is probably to make a Reset of Firefox. This will return Firefox to its default settings. Your personal data (bookmarks, history, etc.) will be saved, but you will have to reinstall all your addons.

    Firefox - modules to reset and refresh settings

    If you don't arrive in the Firefox Orange menu to do the reset and then close Firefox and then hold down the SHIFT key while you open it. This will bring up a menu that gives you the ability to reset Firefox.

    The problem is that (as you've identified) there is a chance that Firefox will get hijacked again if you are unable to remove malware from your computer.

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

    I also suggest looking at the list of programs for starting and turning off one you don't want to or don't recognize. All that is originally from the diversion of mysearchdial is likely to be listed in the startup list, because he wants to run as soon as the computer starts.

    I hope this helps. Let me know if not.

Then I tried to download the heel and the whole package to v26. Whenever I try to install, it starts up and extract the files, I see 100% extract and then nothing happened.

    I even disabled the antivirus software, but it made no difference. Help, please.

    I've traced the permissions changed for the installation of adobe acrobat xi temp folder.
    Apparently, adobe made the changes to plug a security hole which they could not solve.
    change the permissions as they did affect many programs that need to use temporary folders to function correctly.

    hope that this info clears things up for you all.

    solution.

  • Impossible to uninstall Yahoo toolbar from Firefox

    I repost part of another thread that was closed because no one is really listening to people who are showing the problem.

    Quote:

    I had the same problem, once I installed Yahoo Messenger. I asked do not install the toolbar, but it has been installed. Then I uninstalled it, I disabled it to addons, yet, the toolbar was there little matter what I did. I uninstalled Firefox, reinstalled, download mozilla, the toolbar was always there. I did all what it takes to uninstall a piece of software, without being "the tech guy". I don't have the same problem in Chrome or Internet Explorer. It has been uninstalled from all other browsers, when I removed the program from the control panel. I don't see what I can do to get rid of him. I chose to hide just for now, but it bothers me that I have a piece of software that acts like a virus, do stuff I don't want it to do. And for the record, I'm not confused about yahoo search and toolbar for yahooo. Right-click on the interface, allowed me to check or uncheck exactly this "yahoo toolbar".

    /quote

    That's exactly my problem as well.

    In the other thread several people said 'turn off in your Add - ons' as well as the poster above mentioned and I can confirm * is not in the modules area *.

    Others said "use Add/Remove in Control Panel" and like the poster above mentioned, and once again, I can confirm * I did it and it is more appear in Add/Remove, but the toolbar is still annoyingly there. *

    Yet, others have said "you must have downloaded a special version of Firefox yahoo ' no, we (or at least I) didn't. The toolbar has been installed when I installed Yahoo messenger

    -I can't believe that a "clean" Firefox install is the answer to this problem - if yes, that's all just ridiculous.

    If there is no real answer, I can accept that, but I am frustrated that people are posting answers that clearly are not the right answers because people with problems have been very clear on the issues.

    Thanks for reading, please help if you can.
