Firefox tries to upgrade but never finishes

I'm running 7.0.1 and Firefox detects an update but though the update bar loads, the upgrade never completes.

Hi bogdan.victoria,

You should take a look at the Knowledge Base article Update Firefox to the latest release. There is a lot of good information in there and some troubleshooting steps as well.

If that doesn't work, you might want to try installing a fresh copy of Firefox:

I would suggest that you first back up your personal information and bookmarks, just in case. You can find details in the article Manually back up and restore Firefox profile data.

Hopefully this helps!
