She denied permission to install helper at first, but that caused firefox to be dysfunctional. Retrying the install and giving permission to install the helper did not correct the problem. Her laptop is pretty much down for the count on this problem - firefox does not come up. Endless spinning beachball.

Is a work-around available?

It seems there is some conflict between the firefox helper and her VPN, private internet access (PIA) adding the login background task. She's. been using PIA for years.

I would try removing and re-installing firefox as a work-around but that would destroy the her bookmarks she relies on.

Thanks, Jerry

Hi Team, Hope you are doing well. I am not able to install firefox on my win 11 laptop Because of the error shown below. I tried to delete all temp files, I also, restarted my laptop several times and I did the scan to check corrupted files too. Please advice on the further steps.

Thank you.

I'm trying to install version 52.9.0 of Firefox on windows XP. The file available here does nothing when I run it. Windows doesn't show any dialogues or give errors. Nothing happens. When I check on Taskar, I can see the CPU activity go up, but the installer doesn't appear as a process. This is where I'm downloading the setup file from: [http:// https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/52.9.0esr/win32/en-US https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/52.9.0esr/win32/en-US

My Firefox got corrupted while I was in Mexico. Now I am back in US and trying to download Firefox. Error message in Safari that says "cannot create folder." What can I do to fix?

I am following the procedure outlined here at:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-firefox-linux#w_install-firefox-deb-package-for-debian-based-distributions-recommended

I get this error when I run the gpg command

2:05:29:490 1>#8 [base 5/8] RUN gpg -n -q --import --import-options import-show /etc/apt/keyrings/packages.mozilla.org.asc | awk '/pub/{getline; gsub(/^ +| +$/,""); if($0 == "35BAA0B33E9EB396F59CA838C0BA5CE6DC6315A3") print "\nThe key fingerprint matches ("$0").\n"; else print "\nVerification failed: the fingerprint ("$0") does not match the expected one.\n"}' 22:05:29:567 1>#8 0.285 gpg: keyblock resource '/home/.gnupg/pubring.kbx': No such file or directory 22:05:29:567 1>#8 0.285 gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.

I am not familiar with Linux and I thought that following the instructions would work so I am asking for help.

Here is the complete script.
