Sudden death Firefox on Windows XP Professional

Hello. Firefox handles beautifully years when he died suddenly. Had a lot of 'terrible WARNING' messages. I don't not updated to the latest version as it said it was for Windows 8, which I am not running. What should do?

Hello

Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

  1. Download the latest version of Firefox from mozilla.org office (or choose the download for your operating system and language on this page) and save the file to install it on your computer.
  2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (or open the Firefox menu

    Click the close button

    ).

  3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    • Windows:

      • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
      • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
    • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
    • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
  4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
    2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

More information on the resettlement of Firefox can be found here.

WARNING: Do not use an uninstaller to third parties as part of this process. This could permanently delete your Firefox profile data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and passwords saved. They can be retrieved easily unless they have been backed up on an external device! See back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox.

Please report to say if this helped you!

Thank you.

    I bought a computer ZT Club of Sam in 2009 for our church with operating system Windows XP Professional and upgrade disc optional in Windows Vista. Now, I get an error message that my Windows XP Professional software is not valid.  I entered the key to product on the side of the tower to validate online, tried to validate by phone and am unable to do so.  I need help and fast because we were preparing to assign to this computer to our Secretary financial to use next week after having bought a new computer, ZT, who will arrive Friday of next week.  I also bought the 3 years extended warranty with this computer at the time of purchase and it is supposed to be still under warranty.  We are not able to use any software installed and have misplaced the XP disk even though we have the Vista upgrade disc, but our software is not compatible, that is why we never did the upgrade.  We are a small church and cannot afford to buy Windows XP again.

  • using 30 firefox in windows 7, I get a blank when you restart, if I don't have that one tab open when I close it.

    I have my options set for firefox "open windows and tabs from last time", but whenever I don't have that one tab left open, I get a blank page. If I have several tabs, then it opens with the tab and windows.
    I am running Windows 7 Professional and Firefox 30. Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Quote: it's only when I have no tabs open I get the blank page (instead of the homepage).

    There is always at least one open tab, if it didn't is no extensions installed that hide the bar tab in this case.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

  • I have upgraded to Windows XP Professional and now Windows XP Media Center won't play DVD - component missing.

    Now I have Windows XP Professional after the upgrade to Windows XP Media Center Edition Home 2005. Now my Media Center won't play DVDs and I keep getting the error message "Missing Component". I tried to reinstll cumulative update 2 for Windows XP Media Center 2005 that has worked for me the last time I had this problem, but now I get the Error Message "you must have Windows XP Media Center 2005 installed to get this download and it shows already on my computer as installed components. When I reinstalled it 3 years ago he corrected the problem of DVD. Help, please

    Thank you for your help. Here are the answers your request:

    "Windows XP Media Center version 5.1 Edition - this shows when I"run"- winver - ok.
    Complete error message: "Missing Component - required component Media Center is.
    missing. Please contact the manufacturer of your hardware.
    KB article: WindowsXPMediaCenter2005-KB900325 - usa .exe
    The windows of origin is always on display as shown above, but I received a free upgrade to Windows XP Professional CD and installed on my computer. And under 'Information system', it shows as - Microsoft Windows XP Professional 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3.

    This problem started about 10 days when I used the CD of XP Professional to correct a problem. My computer is a Dell Dimension 5100 and I have two CDs that were sent to me - Dell - Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP 3 and Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Version 2005 with update Rollup 2.

    Thanks again and I ran the "fix it" you suggested but it have no problem found to fix. Every thing works fine on my system, but Media Center won't play DVD. It will play CDs and videos on my system.

    The initial problem was that I could not download the Blackberry Desktop Software - updates needed. The computer came with Windows XP Media Center Edition Home and I use Internet Explorer 8 as my default browser. I also use Mozilla Firefox as my backup browser.

    Please stick to your thread to avoid confusion of origin: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-windows_update/i-have-upgraded-to-windows-xp-professional-and-now/f5245962-e9b4-4415-8aff-bc1d972f8120

    Note that I asked you to MOVE your original thread on the forum of material WinXP, not start a new thread.

    Also note that you don't have NO Windows XP Media Center Edition, installed now if you upgraded to Windows XP Professional.

    PS: If "winver" still says Windows XP Media Center Édition, did you not correctly upgraded & something is not. Better contact the Dell Support on this issue (if they'll still talk to you).
