Hello, I use Windows 10, I downloaded Firefox using Microsoft Edge. Once it is installed, it creates an Icon then when you double click it, it does not open, even when I try to open as administrator and it opens, it does not look like a Firefox page because it is a blank page. My browser is Opera, but I opened Firefox from Microsoft Edge. Email me at chemist12@yahoo.com please.

After installing update for Windows 11 23H2, Firefox would run but could not display pages. I tried re-installing Firefox with the online installer but it can't complete the installation and no Firefox.exe can't be found. I then tried downloading and installing the offline version. The installation appears to complete but Firefox doesn't launch and Firefox.Exe can't be found in C:/Program File/Mozilla/.

Due to a technical issue, I've deleted Firefox and re-downloaded it. However, the SHA hash doesn't match. shasum -a 256 [path]/Firefox 134.0.2.dmg shows a hash of:

c87eade89ddf5d1996766840809b5d415d91ecb696326b4f1f92210200978d21

but that hash doesn't show anywhere on https://releases.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/134.0.2/SHA256SUMS

mac/en-US/Firefox 134.0.2.dmg shows a SHA sum of:

7832a8d1e1a13322dec1b52d32e1e64d2b6254de8348575f2d22af4975d56a85

which is completely different.

I re-downloaded it, this time from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/desktop-release/osx/en-US/, and this time the SHA sum is:

47e1c3b84e79d331842ccf994be56cd423126eaca6acfd1664d668cf48f98de0

which is yet different, and is also not found on https://releases.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/134.0.2/SHA256SUMS

What's going on? Why can't I get a matching SHA sum?

It appears my Firefox system is operating under Windows 10, which creates an issue with my email because, currently I'm running the Windows 11 operating system!!!?

  Is there a solution to this Problem?

Thanks, Ollie Moore

I'm a mac user. A few days ago, I got a message on Firefox stating that a new update wasn't able to download automatically, and it advised me to download the latest version of the app instead. I attempted to do this from the Mozilla site, but the file would never download no matter how long I waited; it would get all the way to the end and just spin endlessly without completing the download. I thought I might be having some issue with Firefox in general, so I attempted to uninstall and reinstall the app; I uninstalled it but then found myself still unable to download the app to reinstall it even while using other browsers like Chrome or Safari. I've tried repeatedly to download the app while connected to different wi-fi networks, networks which I've known to be stable. I've been able to download other files without an issue (although none I've tried are as large). I even tried to complete the download using a proxy site, but was still unsuccessful. Is there anything else I can try? Thank you!
