Should I delete the old browser version (3.6.16) if I downloaded 4.0? The two appear in my list of programs. Running windows 7

Only, you need a version, but make sure that there are two versions installed. Sometimes the control panel may list 2 versions of Firefox, even if one version is installed.

If you have installed the beta version of Firefox and then updated to version, you will probably have 2 versions installed as the beta would be default are installed in a different location from the release version.

  • should I delete the old version of firefox before installing a new version? If so, then how can I remove and how?

    I have an older version of Firefox and adobe on a Sony VAIO. I get telling me to update the pop-ups and also frequent failures when I try to use the browser. I try to upgrade. I go through the process of downloading, then try step execution and get a message 'not allowed '. I checked and I have administrator privileges, and I have disabled the firewall security software, thinking that it does not block the installation, but nothing works. Nobody knows if the older software are the cause and should be removed until the last version can go. Also, if this problem is solved I will have the same problem with Adobe?

    What version of Firefox is installed on the computer?

    You can find the full version of the current version of the current Firefox (37.0.2) in all languages and all systems operating here:

    If you have a very old version of Firefox, then you might consider uninstalling this version of clean up the existing registry keys (especial the uninstall key).

    Be sure NOT to remove "personal data" when you uninstall Firefox, because that will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords including data profiles created by other versions of Firefox.

    Check the Firefox program folder and delete the Firefox program folder if there are still files left in it.

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

    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.

    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 do NOT delete personal data when you uninstall Firefox which removes all Firefox profile folders and you lose your data.

  • Can I delete my old Firefox sync account if I have a new one that uses the same email address?

    Hello

    I took off all my devices a synchronization of the old account and set up a new synchronization. In this process, I used the same as before email address.
    I have no use of my old account of synchronization, so the question is:
    Can I remove the old account from synchronization (via https://account.services.mozilla.com/ ) and - implicitly - all associated data without affecting my new account of Firefox (and its data) somehow?

    Thank you!

    Even if you use the same email address the two synchronize the old and the new are separated. As long as you are sure that all devices use new synchronization then the old one is no longer necessary.

    Here is the main article for help on the new sync

  • Cannot use my old firefox sync account after reinstalling

    After reinstalling firefox I can't use my old Firefox Sync account. I am told that there is no such account here https://accounts.firefox.com and I created a new account with the same email as my old account.

    After some research, I found this https://account.services.mozilla.com/ which I can connect with my old account.

    Now, my problem is that I want to retrieve the information I had in my old sync and I can't find a way to do it.

    In addition, because I lived the problems of severe performance using firefox, I deleted some files in my machine with Firefox (after uninstalling) including what appeared to be the location of the profile for firefox.

    What is really important to me is: how to recover my old Firefox Sync account data or synchronize it with the new Mozilla account?

    Thank you

    Hello, firefox 29 and up is using a different synchronization system which is not compatible with the establishment of accounts in the old versions.

    in this case, you'd probably have to use a workaround and download the version of firefox before 28, turn off the automatic update for the moment (in options > advanced > update), bind it to the old sync account (with user name, password & recovery key) and upgraded after you successfully restore your data in this way...

    Install an older version of Firefox

    After you delete cookies, they reappear as soon I can delete.

    How do I get rid of them, is it because of an add-on that they are permanently installed?
    If the cause is in fact an add-on, how can I find it?

  • Should I delete "by user pending windows error reporting" in disk cleanup?

    Hi, I'm using Vista Home Premium and this is my question.

    'by user windows error reporting pending"on my performances of more than 16.5 GB so disk cleanup I think delete. I checked the forums window says it's a bug and will mess up my data if I did. But the answers were pretty old (2007-beginning of 2009). My laptop is just upgraded to service pack 2. So I don't know whether or not this so-called bug has already been fixed. Should I delete it or just leave it there? Will it continue to grow if I don't do anything? I read some messages and some said that it has increased to more than 100 GB.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    If you encounter any problems, then you can use Disk Cleanup to remove all error reports and
    dump files.

    I hope this helps.

  • Cannot delete the old folder separate disk windows

    I had a system OS 3 for a while, Vista, Win7 RC and Win7 Pro.

    Win7 RC is pleased and I want to delete records from his drive to free up space.

    I took possession of the folder (including subfolders) windows and my account is an administrator with full control account, BUT when I try to delete the old directory of windows first it says I need give permission, I click on continue, she goes through the files, and then a box indicates that I need permission from account owner Joan to continue.

    I'm logged into this account. This account is me, but when I click on continue, it says access denied.

    It's the same with the old directory program files.

    I can't delete, or the old directory of users.

    None of them is used. All are owned by mey account (there are only two accounts put in place on my PC and mine's administrator.)

    I am running windows 7 Pro 64 bit installed on my E drive.

    The files that I want to delete are on the c drive.

    How this computer to recognize that my admin account has full right, remove the obsolete operating system?

    Thank you

    Can archaeologist, you access the OS Win 7 RC?

    If so, use it "Folder Options" in the control panel.

    To all the "hidden files" readable.

    You say that you are the administrator, you should be able to do.

    You also try to remove Vista, as well?

    Do the same with this.

    Why you be "denied access" is... because these system files 'hidden '.

    Once this has been done, you can now in Win 7 (the one you want to keep!).

    In administrative tools, select 'Create and format hard disk partitions.

    Right click on the BLUE bar, drive hard 'in question.

    This will give you... .with a drop-down window, containing...

  • After removing the Dual Boot, I can't delete the old partition

    Some time ago I installed an SSD and I have Windows 7 installed in Dual Boot with the Windows 7 system.
    So, I had two versions of Windows 7, which worked well.

    Now I no longer use the old system, I disabled the function of Dual Boot. I want to format the old drive, but it does not work because Windows still sees it as active system partition. In addition, I can't delete the partition.

    How can I format or delete the old partition?

    I already tried Msconfig, Bud that did not help. Default Msconfig begins with 'selective startup' and an operating system that is displayed in the Startup tab. When I select 'Normal Startup' there are two operating systems that are listed in the Startup tab. When I delete the old and reboot, it is back again...

    Who has the solution?

    (1) create a system repair disc (if you do not have an installation disk for Windows 7 for the version of Windows you have installed).
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/create-a-system-repair-disc

    (2) then remove the hard disk you want to format. Now try to start the remaining version of Windows. You should see a missing bootmgr message. Proceed to step #3.

    (3) Bootmgr is missing, message or black screen with cursor flashing
    (See method #2 in this Wiki article)
    http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/wiki/Windows_7-system/Bootmgr-is-missing-message-or-black-screen-with/73fef5b7-5a7f-4910-a2b0-7219e9ec1646

    (4) after you have created the BCD store on the remaining drive (to step #3 above), it should start up on Windows and also be the partition 'Active'.

    (5) shut down the PC and set the old drive, turn on a load Windows and then delete all the remaining partitions on the old disk.
