Why Windows cannot start the Firefox Service on Local computer?

Hello, Tech Savvy people-
 
For some strange reason, the message in the title is what I get when I look under Services in administrative tools.
I am told:
Windows could not start the Service of Firefox in the Local computer
Error3: the system does not have the selected path.

I did a full scan of my files (sfc/scannow) and my drive (chkdsk); completed a full virus
In addition, malware scan and all the so-called runs along fine.

But Firefox 12 needs several clickings of surface, and when it finally arrived, several minutes.
Boring.

No idea why my local network or Local computer cannot start Firefox?
Can anyone suggest how I could get my system to find this path?

Firefox used to mount quickly enough, and my other browser, IE9 still does, even though I don't like
using IE and for about 3 years found Firefox generally to be a superior browser.
Feel a little miserable if I go back to IE.

Thank you for answering this aggravation.

    These error messages are a pain in the neck to extract useful information.

    I suggest that you do a search online 'pilot audio free downloads' and find another audio program for your PC.

    If you find something that works for your satisfaction - remove your original pain in neck audio software and make sure you make your audio program newly found the 'default' device.

    Realtek and NVIDIA, for example get stuff good free audio driver.

    If the new program does not work - it would be a good indication that you have hardware on your PC, drive problems and no amount of play more with to try to correct the audio software will help. Period

    Hi sanjeevkode,

    Thank you for visiting the website of Microsoft Windows Vista Community.  As the question you posted typically associated with third party software / application that has its own way of program codes and call the corresponding system resources when installing and running. Therefore, I also suggest you to join the VMware Forums for the best support.

    VMware communities: http://communities.vmware.com/home.jspa

    In the meantime I suggest you try these options / methods

    IMPORTANT NOTE: Microsoft provides this information as a convenience to you. Proposed changes could lead to serious problems. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems would be solved as a result of the suggestions. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    Option 1: If you go to computer management, and then to the list of Services and find the VMware authorization Service, it appears as stopped? If so, you need to start

    Option 2: Try logging on as an administrator Local host during installation first workstation, rather than you connect with a domain ID

    Option 3: The question can be caused also by your security program such an antivirus or a firewall of Windows /Defender that can have conflicting parameters as to not not to perform certain tasks. I suggest you temporary disable antivirus and firewall and check the result again. You must enable security programs new that had disabled you

    Option 4: The problem could be linked to a local or domain group policy. Make sure that the local account is defined as 'local user __vmware_user__' in the local Administrators group and the permissions of "Log on locally" and "Log on as a service.

    The two parameters are available in the "* Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\User Rights Assignment *" branch of domain group policy or local.

    Let me know if it worked.
    Hope it will be useful.

    Hello

    You are running a third part of the internet security solution? Many of them include a firewall that is clean and disable the Windows Firewall. If this is the case, you should first disable this one before the attempt to initialize the Windows Firewall. It is not advisable to attempt to run two firewalls at the same time.

    If you have recently deleted (uninstalled) a third party solution, you may need to run a cleanup this provider of software tool to remove any debris WASTE of this program in order to activate the Windows Firewall.
