Can't get it to install correctly - will not work!
Firefox worked fine for me until last week. I tried to install a new copy and I get the following message -
THE CODE EXECUTION CANNOT PROCEED BECAUSE VCRUNTIME140_1.DLL WAS NOT FOUND. REINSTALLING THE PROGRAM MAY FIX THE PROBLEM.
No matter what I do, I cannot get this to install.
It appears to install but when I open Firefox and try to navigate to a website it is dead in the water. Will not connect to internet!
Please help!

Neither of the recent suggestions work. 1st I do not have Firefox installed on my machine. I am currently using Chrome for lack of anything else. So option 1 will not work. Tried option 2. Followed it with precision and I still come up with the same error message about the missing DLL. Very frustrated. I've been trying for a week now to install Firefox and get it back up and running.
