Firefox Community Forum

I came from IBM Mainframes to PC's in the dawn of time. My obsessive-compulsive computer hygiene can't tolerate seeing anything blemish my clearly arranged desktop, nevermind an executable file and unsightly shortcut-icons, I know how to use existing commands, menus and taskbars, thanks. How do I move the firefox.exe from my desktop back into the C: root program files folder? I have tried all the usual old-tricks but she won't launch after modifying paths etc. Please help.

Firefox installation error on 2021 MacBook - Compressed data is corrupted or the split compressed file is missing.

The same thing happens when you download with Safari and Chrome browsers. I would like to know how to solve this. Thank you.

My firefox tried to install an update. It was unable to do so twice in a row (it couldn't even download an update, was stuck on 0kb). I tried to install it manually but the installer had the same problem and was stuck on nothing I then foolishly tried to install an older version that worked for the time but seems to have f-ed everything up in the long run I uninstalled firefox and tried to reinstall it. Now I simply can't open https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-stub&os=win&lang=ru

Is this something connected to my country? To my pc?

And I ran the disk scan check. It found something and repaired it. My install still doesnt work

I have a new Microsoft Surface tablet. I thought I downloaded Mozilla/ or transferred it from my old PC computer where it is my primary. First there is no "Home" tab. Second, I have renewed my VPN,which was recently due to renew, and I believe it is downloaded onto the tablet, although I can't find any icon for it. When I try to download it again, I get an error message that this app is only supported by 64 bit devices? So, does that mean my Surface tablet doesn't have 64 bit capabilities? I'm confused. Thanks

They come in as Unconfirmed ######.crdownload I've tried the link on the Mozilla site and the link in the Microsoft store. I'm using Chrome as a browser & want to change.

I try to install Firefox directly from the Mozilla repository.

For that, I read the article "Install Firefox on Linux" and followed the install instructions in first chapter "Debian-based distributions" step-by-step. (article https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-firefox-linux)

Unfortunately, with every attempt to install Firefox, the Firefox LinuxMint (Ubundu) package will be still installed. The command to priorise the Mozilla repository seems to have no influenace.

How can I prevent/avoid using the LinuxMint/Ubundu repository? I wan't to install and update Firefox direct from Mozilla source.

I'm using Linux Mint 22.1 Xia base (Ubuntu 24.04 noble)

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?

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/.

I want to download and install Firefox on my new iMac. As administrator it downloads but the instellation won't run. As a user it downloads and I can move the icon into the application folder. Firefox then opens but it won't run. Everything is frozen. What is going on??

Hi, just tried to access Firefox via an existing PC desktop short cut and it said "The item "firefox.exe that this shortcut refers to has been changed or moved, so this shortcut will no longer work properly. Do you want to delete this shortcut?" Not sure why it's suddenly done this.Should I delete the app via "Add remove" and re-install.

I'm running fedora open access software 64 bit. when I hit download firefox the computer runs it and it seems like it does it but I can't find it in downloads and it basically doesn't complete. What to do?
