Unable to install firefox in windows 7 32 bit
I have been trying to install firefox in my windows 7 32 bit system , but it is not getting installed. I have downloaded the .exe file from the location "https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/?scene=2" and the file downloaded is "Firefox Setup Stub 48.0.2"
Post download I clicked on the exe file torun, when clicked on run it gives the message as shown in the screen shot.
When I choose the first option as the current user , then nothing happens and when the 2nd option is chosen it prompts the pass word is incorrect.Not sure why password is being asked. I do not have any password set for my computer.
Please help with this issue or let me know if any version is compatible to be installed.

Sounds like that is the update stub, not the program itself. Try this link; Download Firefox For All languages And Systems {web link}

The Firefox Setup Stub is Firefox program, not a update. The difference between two for same end result is it connects online to do install vs the full setup which can be installed offline even.

Another member has solved my problem-I installed it just for windows, not 64 bit and that did the trick. I lost the dreaded admin message. Many thanks for the help.
