Last night the 15th January 2025, the firefox decided to update, buy it self closing the browser, however when it restarted it now comes up an Error, something along the lines of 134.0.1 and 134.0 MinVersion, if you have seen this you will know what I mean, it suggested to reinstall firefox, with that I did and I tried to porting all the setting and data and every thing, however it didnot import.

Where can I find the previous version that generated the error to start the import again... as there are links that I simply can not get any more

Cheers

Downloaded an update of firefox. Is this for real? A message box came up and said I would get a NEW version of firefox but all my things would be saved. Now I have two firefox versions. My old version has all my info and saved and/or chosen settings. HOWEVER the newer version is a new install without settings and WORSE it has GOOGLE as the browser?!?! Is DUCK DUCK GO gone to goOgle? If I wanted a shopping app I would use my GOOGLE account instead of Firefox. How do I fix this?

I have taken the position of never installing updates of firefox in windows 10 because of the following: after EVERY update, within 20 minutes of activity my mouse freezes. Keyboard is inactive. I have no option but to reboot. Windows displays "repair mode" 2 HOURS LATER ! the pc finally boots. This happens after EVERY upgrade. Since I have stopped upgrading, the pc behaves.

Hi there, Im on a windows 10(ish) and yesterday got this problem after the auto update to firefox 133.0.3 - Update is not working. error window says platform version 133.0.3 is not compatible with minVersion >= 133.0... how can I fix this?

I've seen that there was a similar issue back in October with a previous version. Tried to follow instructions and reinstaled firefox from mozilla. But the problem is still there. Restarted after reinstalling and still getting the same error message. ((( Please help )))

Hallo zusammen,

ich kann meinen Firefox nicht mehr aufrufen, weil er wohl nicht kompatibel mit 133 ist. Es wird empfohlen zu deinstallieren und neu zu installieren. Aber dann sind meine Favoriten, Lesezeichen und Passwörter weg. Ich kann sie nicht sichern, weil ich keinen Zugriff auf die alte Version habe. Wie löse ich das Problem?

Viele Grüße Annette

Hello everyone,

I can no longer access my Firefox because it is probably not compatible with 133 (see screenshot). It is recommended to uninstall and reinstall. But then my favorites, bookmarks and passwords are gone. I can't save them because I don't have access to the old version. How do I solve the problem?

Best regards Annette

Hi - Happy Holidays!

When I open Firefox for the first time each day I get this error message

Error: Platformversion 133.03.03 is not compatible with: minversion:>= 132..02.02 maxversion:> = 132.02.02 Maybe try to reinstal Firefox?

I have not tried to install because don't know if that would solve the problem and I'm afraid of losing bookmarks

I have used firefox for several years. Lately I have consistently gotten a message that there is an error and Platform Version 130.0 is not compatible..... I have followed several suggested remedies on the Internet with no luck, with the most consistent remedy being to reinstall. Thjat hasn't worked. Do you have a solution or should I just go to another browser?

If you select No to the UAC prompt when updating Firefox via Installer, it will install Firefox to "AppData\Local\Mozilla Firefox" without telling you, instead of overwriting the copy in Program Files or erroring out. Additionally it will create a new Profile and set this new Profile as the Default Profile without telling you. Lastly, it'll remove an existing Pinned shortcut on the Taskbar.

So you've now got 2 copies of Firefox installed, one of which you're not told anything about and an additional Firefox Profile with no indication that this happened nor any instructions on how to undo this nor how to change the default Profile.

I accepted an update to my computer and immediately Firefox could not load, the exe file is missing. Again I use windows 7 . May have lost all passwords and bookmarks. Please advise.

Hello,

When I attempt to open Firefox, I am getting a pop-up screen saying:

135.0.1 not compatible with min version >= 135.0 max version <=135.0

Also, I am being advised to reinstall Firefox. Do I need to uninstall Firefox first?

Windows10, Dell Laptop

Thank you,

So I know this question has been asked and answered in various scenarios but so far I've not found one matching mine.

Personal PC. I'm on V 131.0.2 since a reinstall last year but only now realised no updates have been done since because of this msg. I've worked through the various fixes others used re policies, but I can't locate any policy files in the various locations suggested; registry editor (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox key (don't have it) & others, about:config (nothing showing on a search), Program Files/Policies (don't have it), C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\Distribution folder (don't have it). So I could not find the offending poicy DisableAppUpdate anywhere in locations offered by other posters etc.

Rather than taking forever to pin down the culprit, can I not just manually update to the latest version or will that delete all my settings/extensions etc?? Given how often it's crashing I'm almost tempted down that road except that I like to have my History intact as I often want to find a site I've not bookmarked.

Thanks.

Good Morning! :)

I have a note book HP, which windows operating system was erased back in the past, I happily use mozilla. This device I use it exclusively as a monitor to watch TV.

I got the notification of the Mozilla update, I have downloaded many times in the laptop: firefox-136.0.1-tar.xz However does not run or execute the file and update the system and laptop. I am able to open the file, but that is all.

Please let me know what I am doing wrong to fix it.

Thank you very much for your attention

I read there is a need to immediately update Firefox. I down;loaded it, but got a message that a newer version exists...? Also, it shows my latest update was 11/24. I use auto updates and recall one much more recently.(in fact I found the new tabs annoying) I am perplexed.
