Do you have a Firefox program folder?

  • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\
  • C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\ (64 bit OS)

If not then you need to download a fresh version and reinstall the program.

You may need to do that as Administrator (right-click the Firefox installer: Run as Administrator).

I solved the problem, I was using sandboxie when I first downloaded Firefox, this was the reason I didn't see an Firefox icon on my desktop. Thanks for your help
