I still cannot get FireFox off my computer. I tried to start Manually by runningC:\Program Files\ Mozilla FireFox\uninstall\helper.exe.But cannot find it on my computer.So I still have the same problem.

why not just go into Control Panel & click on Programs then click on Uninstall Programs.. Scroll down until you see Mozilla Firefox & click on that & click 'uninstall' then follow directions.. that's always the easiest way to uninstall any program.. then defragment to close up the open spaces..

try this link from the article I just referenced above..


If the Uninstall Wizard does not run, you can start it manually, by running

C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe.

clear your address bar of everything including the https:// that's normally there and manually type in C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe. then hit enter & you should get a message that asks if you want to run it or save it if you choose to save it save it to the desktop & then when the icon appears on the desktop just double click on it to run it.. or when it asks the question do you want to run it or save it just click on run..

Not sure why you wouldn't want to use Firefox its a great browser far superior to Internet Explorer & safer but to each his own..

try my suggestion up top & let me know how you do.. my email address is casperandangel1@aol.com

good luck

Press Win + R, a Run window will open. Type "C:\Program Files\Mozilla FireFox\uninstall\helper .exe" without quotes there, click "OK".

Please let us know whether that works.
