Firefox properties shows shortcut only; how to see full features?
Both my desktop and control panel show only a shortcut for Firefox, which doesn't have any setting for properties. How do I get the full version? Do I have to remove Firefox and reload it?
Also, the update notice says that some add-ons may be disabled. How do I know what they are and what to do? Because of this I have been refusing the update.
I have been using Firefox as my browser 99% of the time, and am definitely not a techie.

Do you still see this file in the Downloads folder in the Library?
You can right-click that entry and choose "Open containing folder" to go to the folder where the file was saved.
If this entry is grayed then your anti-virus software may have removed this file.
Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.

You can find the full version of the latest Firefox 22.0 release in all languages and for all Operating Systems here:
You can install this extension to see the current compatibility info on the about:addons page.
Is It Compatible?:
Sounds like a dumb question, but when I tried to download, it asked me if I wanted to save, which I did and then couldn't find even with My Computer search, and it did not, like most downloads, ask me if I wanted to Run. Do I have to uninstall the Firefox shortcut that is currently on my computer? I have Internet Explorer (which doesn't work as well but I can still get online.)
