Am getting this message when I attempt to open Firefox: "The application or DLL F:\Program Files\ Mozilla Firefox\nss3.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette."

I had responded favorably to the upgrade message from Firefox but after the download I kept getting a Firefox message that I had to close all other instances of Firefox running before the installation process could complete. There were no other open Firefox programs! I re-booted and tried to open Firefox, and the Windows alert already cited started, and Firefox will not open.
Checking via Windows Explorer it appears that I still have version 3.6.

I resolved the problem. I went to CNet and re-downloaded the upgrade. It proceeded as intended and the upgrade is installed and running with no loss of plug-ins, bookmarks, etc.

    MOZCRT19.dll is not valid windows image. please check against your installation disktte. Please help me in this.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

  • 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.

  • Error message: Bad Image: The application or DLL C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\MOZCRT19.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette.

    I was in Firefox but I exited. Soon I opened it again, it
    installed updates and this message showed up. I tried
    scanning the file, looking at it, and everything short of
    reinstalling Firefox (which every other person with this
    problem has tried but it has not worked.). I installed
    Firefox by USB drive, not a diskette, and I no longer have
    it with me, so I can't check it from there. What should I
    do to fix this problem?

  • When intalling ver.8.0 error revd: Error creating directory: C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/jsloader/recource

    Had trouble installing ver 8.0. So uninstalled and did clean intall,not upgrade. Now I'm receiving error above. Have tried the uninstall/reinstall twice now.
    This started because another user with their own desktop the computer could not access Firefox at all while I could from my desktop.

    no update yet. I'm gonna run the tool that is suggested, but I have no other issues with any previous patch. I thought the content of the file I added to my post would have ring a bell to somebody, who had the same problem, but it seems like I was wrong. I'll post once I run the tool suggested in the note

  • I have uninstalled and re-downloaded firefox 3 times now and each time I get and error message saying that firefox is not a valid windows image? I download it from your website but to no availe

    This is the error message I get when I try and open Firefox:
    ''The application or DLL C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\WSOCK32.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette.''

    wsock32.dll is a Windows System file which is used to connect to the internet. if you are seeing this error message then its probably because either your Antivirus program might have moved this file to the Virus Chest or this file was Deleted mistakenly. Try Restoring this file from your Anti Virus software or check if it is still available in the Recycle Bin folder.
    If above suggestions don't work, see this:
    ''This error is a tough one as it severely limits the programs or apps that you can run in Windows. This error pops up every time you try to open a program in windows, well not every program but most. Most spyware programs can’t be ran because this error pops up and prevents it.''
    ''One would think that the solution would be to repair the invalid .dll, but what ended up fixing it for me was extracting a fresh copy of explorer.exe. It looks like explorer.exe had gotten corrupt for some reason and was causing the bad image errors with certain .dll s.''
    ''To repair the problem open up '''msconfig''', it is actually one of the few programs in windows that would still open. To open it click on Start -> Run ->Type in '''msconfig''' and hit Enter. Once it is open click on the button that says “Expand File”. From there you will select the file that needs replaced and the location of the good file. Most of the time the good file can be found in the i386 folder of your XP install cd. My msconfig didn’t like the directory “C:\Windows\System32\ that was already filled in, so browse to the Windows\system32 directory and it should work just fine.''
    ''Expand the file, it will look like nothing happened, that is normal. Reboot the computer and you should not get the errors anymore.''
    ''To be safe, I expanded the Wsock32.dll file as well, so if for some reason your error still persists try expanding the dll file too.''

    Check and tell if its working.

    Make sure that , they are not inside Pictures folder any more and try to open backup from Lighrtroom and check..
    Any LRcat file with .lock extension , move it to Desktop.

  • After installing the maverick i get this message when i try to open   iTunes: If you want to run i 64bits modus you must remove the mark:Open in 32bits modus.But i have removed the 32bits and i still can't get it to work!Have maces

    after installing maverick i get this message when i try to open itunes:Unmark the 32bits modus-but i have unmarked it several times!The new iTunes requires 64bits modus so what shall i do?

    I upgraded my 2007 iMac (20") to Maverick. Should never have done this! Lost mail, lost my mail archive, lost numerous programs/applications, lost all my installed hardware, spend 4 days on getting it running again with the (supreme) help of Apple Care. However it should not have happened at all!
    iMac Computers with less than 4Gb of internal memory (as explained by Apple Care), or less than (estimated) 150Gb of free disc-space should not upgrade! Simple as that and the App Store should warn you about that and not simply let you pick up your free copy of Maverick!

    Do a back up then try reinstalling.
    You should always back up before do an update, upgrade, anything with the system in case something goes wrong. That way you still have a current copy of your data.
    Try starting in safe mode, then running the update. This will disable most 3rd party sofwarelike anti virus and other things prople put on their machines that can cause problems.
    Safe mode:
    Power off, power on holding the shift key, continue to hold until you see the progress BAR then re;ase and allow to finish booting. Note this will take longer than a regular boot. Login and try running software update or use the link here to download. Use an ethernet connection if possible as it is much less prone to corruption than wireless.

    After download and install logout and restart normally.
