Where did you find those instructions to delete the '''xpicleanup.dat''' file?

    Do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    You can skip the step to create a new profile, that is not necessary for this issue.

  • When I click on my Firefox desktop shortcut, this message appears "The application or DLL C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\MOZCRT19.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your instillation diskette". I cannot enter the program.

    I believe that my question gave all the details. I am wireless in my home and the other computers connected to this wireless have no problem getting into Firefox. What is MOZCRT19?

    clementem,
    This means there is a problem with the files you need to run Firefox.
    Try a clean reinstall:
    1. Download the Firefox installer from [http://mozilla.com Mozilla.com] and save it to your desktop or other location.
    2. Make sure that Firefox is closed completely
    3. Delete the Firefox installation directory (On Windows, this is typically the C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox folder that contains "firefox.exe" and other Firefox program files and folders).
    4. Reinstall Firefox by running the installer you downloaded previously.
    Your personal settings, including bookmarks and history, will not be lost.

    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!

  • I can't uninstall Firefox(3.6.3) either through the control panel or by going to Program files/Mozilla Firefox/Uninstall and running the helper.exe, I have Windows 7 Home Premium(64bit)

    I simply want to uninstall Mozilla FireFox 3.6.3. I tried both recommendations of using the control panel to add/remove program and running the helper.exe in Program Files/Mozilla FireFox/uninstall. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium Edition(64bit). When I tried to remove it using the add/remove program and helper.exe all it does is start for a split second(mouse pointer turns into circular loading icon) and then it stops.

    Hi Guys,
    I had this same problem too, and i want to share to all of you my own fix for this kind of problem;
    (READ FIRST: ''This step will wipeout everything that mozilla saved on your computer including : password, history and bookmarks''.)'''
    '''1. download the Revo Uninstaller''''''
    - quick step guide for this:
    select mozilla firefox, don't forget to uninstall everything that relates to mozilla including registry to clean them all up.
    '''2. download mozilla firefox again'''
    - AND REINSTALL. however on this stage, in some cases mozilla will not open at this stage.
    '''3. Uninstall Mozilla firefox again NOW using control panel.'''
    '''4. Restart the computer to refresh everything.'''
    '''5. Reinstall mozilla firefox again, once you have received the prompt for "exporting or importing etc.. etc.. from Microsoft" that means its already working.. it will take around 5-10 sec to load up (in my case) .'''

    What do I need to do to fix this?

    * Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.

    * Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

    Hello Jignesh.
    This issue has been reported before by other users, and it turns out it's the effect of malware. In other words, your system is infected. To scan for malware, install, update and run these programs ''in this order''. They are all free for personal use, but some have limited functionality in their "free mode", but the features you'll miss are not really needed to find and remove the problem you have.

    Do you have any idea how to get rid of this annoying pop-up? I searched for that file name on Google, but nothing came up.
    This only started happening after the Scareware program, Open Cloud Security, infected my computer a few days ago. My wife got into my registry to remove Open Cloud, but now I am left with this annoying Firefox problem. I have to close the annoying window TWICE to get back to Drudge.

  • When I open Firefox I receive the following message on the open tab: jar:file:///C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/chrome/en-US.jar!/locale/branding/browserconfig.properties.

    I have been slowly loading more plugins and extensions for Firefox, as I found that I had a conflict and Firefox would freeze. Two (2) days ago I used Firefox Sync for the first time. After I rebooted my computer, I found that when I opened Firefox I receive this message "jar:file:///C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/chrome/en-US.jar!/locale/branding/browserconfig.properties."
    I use Speed Dial as my home page and at the same time I received this message, Speed Dial stopped working, unless I click on the "open a new tab" button.
    I opened the container for the file listed above, and I show that the file is in the folder.
    I tried reinstalling Firefox in case there was a corrupt setting, however it hasn't helped

    Caused by the Firefox Sync extension. Reset your Homepage to Default.

    Please do the following.<br><br>
    #Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/?ref=logo Download Firefox 5.0.1] and download the installation file to your desktop. If necessary, download it using Internet Explorer, but in that event, choose "'''Save'''" when you see the prompt and save it to the desktop. ''Do not choose "Run"''. <br><br>
    #Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (''don't checkmark the box'').<br><br>
    #Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox<br><br>
    #Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.<br>
    Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.<br><br>
    As a precaution, make a backup of your Bookmarks as follows:<br><br>
    #Press CTRL+SHIFT+B to open the Bookmarks Manager.<br><br>
    #Click the link to '''Import and Backup '''and then click '''Export HTML '''and save the file somewhere.
    You can use this file at any time to restore your bookmarks should that prove to be necessary. Simply reverse the procedure and choose "Import HTML" instead.
    N.B. If you use a download accelerator, disable it before you attempt to download Firefox. These utilities are a frequent cause of extraction failures.
