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.

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

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 have a Windows 7 PC. IE no longer works. I would like to use Firefox to access the Internet. Firefox offers a version for download. I got it using my Windows 11 PC, however it fails saying that it can only be installed on Windows 10. Can this be fixed? I cannot access the Internet from my Windows 7 PC.

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 [email removed]@yahoo.com please.
