Hi,

After I un-install Firefox 38.0.1, it will automatically re-install again. I've remove Firefox folder in Program Files and AppData. OS: Windows 7, 64bit

Thank you.

Sorry, finally I found the reason. Because recently Chrome blocked JAVA, yet our IT push Firefox to our PC for better compatible. That's why it will "automatically" re-install Firefox.

What is your computer system? When did all this start? Did you get Firefox from Mozilla.org ?

My PC OS is Windows 7 64bit in English. It automatically re-installs some time later after I uninstalled it. I got Firefox from Mozilla.

I will try to install the latest version then un-install it again to check if it will automatically re-install or not.
