Had to uninstall Firefox, now want to reinstall but get the error message: "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. The old Firefox process must be closed to open a new window." followed by "Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible." Can find no Firefox running using Task Manager. But did find my profile using Mozilla Firefox instructions.

How to switch from 64-bit to 32-bit Firefox on Windows 10 Home

I want to uninstall FF 64-bit and install FF 32-bit (because I want to use addons, like ADBlocker Plus, and they won't install - or worse install but not show up - in FF 64-bit).
1) I go to https://www.mozilla.org, which becomes https://www.mozilla.org/en-GB/ . I click "Firefox" and I am at https://www.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/new/ .
2) I click "Firefox for Other Platforms and Languages" and I get a dialog where I click "Windows 32-bit". I get "Firefox Installer.exe".
3) I close and uninstall FF 64-bit from Control Panel.
4) I run that exe and after the install process I do have FF again, but it's still the 64-bit version. It has even remembered my session and bookmarks and I am even still logged in to sites I was logged in to before uninstalling (those for which I had asked to be kept logged in of course).
I tried that same process many times, by downloading FF with FF itself and with other browsers. I have even unistalled a "Mozilla Maintenance Service" I found installed in Control Panel, in case it was it that was forcing the wrong version to be installed, but no.
I also tried to click "Available languages" in the dialog at point 2, clicked on "Download" at row "English (British)" and column "Windows" (NOT the "Windows 64-bit" at its right), that gave me "Firefox Setup 55.0.2.exe", but this installer too produces the same result (I end up with the 64-bit version again).
No error messages ever appear at any point.
I simply can't seem to be able to replace FF 64-bit with FF 32-bit. I really don't understand what I am doing wrong. Any ideas ?

Firefox Auto Update Doesn't Work

Update Ready to Install A security and stability update for Firefox has been downloaded and is ready to be installed. Update: Firefox 55.0.2 The update will be installed the next time Firefox starts. You can restart Firefox now, or continue working and restart later.
I click the [Restart Firefox] button, Firefox quits and restarts, and the window appears again; the update has never been installed.
I don't particularly mind going and getting the new Firefox from the download site (though there's no link to it in the Bookmarks, so I have to search it out), but I'm guessing it has already been downloaded and is hidden somewhere. No sense is having two copies of the application on my Mac; so if I update manually I'd like to delete the downloaded one. Or use it for the update manually, since it won't work automatically. So where is it?

Firefox seems to start downloading files even before i accept or cancel the download dialog. I have a limited and fast data plan. I often need to check the file size before allowing the file download. In case of cancellation, the part already downloaded is a total waste. How do I disable this behavior ?
