Firefox 29.0.1 installer not working on windows 8.1

I have tried to automatically install the latest firefox but always keeps giving me error. I downloaded the offline installer and tried to run it. I got the Windows prompt to accept the software install, and then...... nothing. The installer never runs. Seems to extract a 100% and then disappears.
I had a similar problem last time and I disabled the windows firewall and defender, uninstalled firefox and ran the offline installer. Worked perfectly fine. Doesn't seem to work this time around.
Does anyone know what seems to be the issue?

You're welcome.
Sorry, I can't know what the exact problem was. Many things don't start in Windows Safe Mode, like third-party security software and included security tools like Windows Defender. You can use the following guide if you want to troubleshoot the issue. The "How to determine what is causing the problem by performing a clean boot" section is the relevant part.

  • Adobe Flashplayer installer not working with Windows 8.1 and Firefox

    I am running Windows 8.1 and attempted to download Flashplayer for Firefox.  I have it working in IE, but it will not launch for Firefox.  Any ideas on what might be blocking the Flashplayer installer from running in Windows 8.1?

    Hi sfmedic,
    Have you tried to download another installer to have a check ?
    Here are several links may be helpful to troubleshoot this issue:

    Considering it can be installed in the Internet Explorer ,this issue is related to the Fire Fox. It is recommended to look for help from the Fire Fox forum.

  • Firefox v. 29 will not work with Windows XP in accessing Comcast email.

    My Comcast email will not load and I cannot access any email after installing Firefox v. 29. I went to Microsoft web site and installed the Service Pack 3 for Windows XP. This did not help. Do I need to reinstall Firefox 28? The only other solution is to get a new computer it seems with Windows 8.1 and I'd rather not unless absolutely essential.

    Moses: a tech rep at Comcast finally told me they needed to do some upgrades to make the full version of their email program compatible with Firefox 29. He set the email on 'Lite' which seems to work. This was the 4th call to Comcast! Now email seems to be working due to this change. Thanks for the suggestions.

    MMIf you have a 12c database, you must be part of Oracle's beta test program and should be getting your support from them.

  • Flash 10.2 not working in Windows 7 IE8 despite 'successful' installation

    Hi there,
    I downloaded flash player to attempt to view flash media on sites such as bbc website and youtube.
    Despite the installation claiming to be successful, I still cannot view video on any sites I have tried.
    (bbc website says I don't have the correct version, youtube says I need to upgrade)
    My system details are as follows:
    Windows 7 Home Premium, 32-bit operating system
    Internet Explorer 8.0.7600.16385IC  (it makes no mention of being 64-bit)
    Flash Player 10.2.152.26
    I have tried following the troubleshooting guides on the adobe website, particularly 'Flash player does not work in Windows 7'
    but I have not managed to fix the problem.
    I've also gone through several threads on this forum, relating to similar problems, but I'm sorry I haven't been able to fix it.
    So far, the stuff I have tried is listed below, but since it has not worked, I assume I have done something incorrectly, missed something,
    or I have not yet found the right solution.
    The Flash Player does not appear on my programs list, but it does show up in the control panel/list of installed programs.
    I don't know how to get flash player to run on its own, so I can't access settings etc. for the hardware acceleration.
    The folder located at C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash contains 5 files:
    Flash10m.ocx; FlashInstall.log ; FlashUtil10m_ActiveX.dll; FlashUtil10m_ActiveX.exe; install.log
    When I visit the adobe page for testing flash player, it does not show me any animation; there is a blank white rectangle with a tiny red 'X' in its top left corner, which I assume should be a box containing the version information if the player had been recognized.
    I have looked at the IE8 'tools/Manage Add-Ons - 'show' All Add Ons, and there is no listing of  'Shockwave  Flash Object'
    although there is a listing of   'shockwave activeX control' which is enabled.
    I've set my IE8 security settings to medium for the categories of 'Trusted Sites' and 'Internet' and I've made sure to set:
    'Download Signed ActiveX Controls' to 'Prompt'  and 'Run ActiveX Controls And Plug-ins' to 'Enable'
    I've tried unintalling the flash player using the specified tool, removing the adobe download tool, and manual re-installation.
    Finally, I tried (with much hesitation) to modify the registry key referred to in the Flash-Killer or 'kill-bit' guidlines.
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000}
    The key existed, with a Name: compatibility flags  ; Type: REG_DWORD  ; Data: 0x0000400 (1024)
    So I changed the value from 400 to 000 as suggested.
    This is not worked either, despite uninstalling flash player, re-booting and re-installing.
    Finally, I updated the graphics driver for my ATI RADEON HD 5670 card, but aside from scaring me by drastically altering the screen resolution and not allowing me to roll back the driver, it has unfortunately not solved the flash player problem.
    I appreciate that the people with expertise have given loads of help on this problem, I hope I haven't missed something important when following the advice, but I'm pretty stuck, so if anyone can help, I thank you very much.
    thanks,
    pad

    Hi eidnolb,
    unfortunately, the installation of FP 9.0.280 based on running flashplayer9r280_winax.exe has not worked:
    I cannot see the animation / spinning, there is no animation and no box showing the version.
    (I have included a partial screenshot in this message, file name flashplayer_test_screenshot.jpg)
    Therefore, I did not continue with the instructions.
    The control panel list of programs does show 'Adobe Flash Player ActiveX' as being installed, version 9.0.280.0
    There were no messenger utilites listed in the system tray.
    As you advised, the first thing I did was to modify the {D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000} registry key value from 400 to 000.
    After modifying the value by making it Zero, I re-started the computer.
    Regarding Administrator Account, I looked on ther 'User Accounts' information, and there is only one user, my dad, and he is listed as Administrator.
    Sorry, but I will need to ask for your further advice. In case it is useful, I tried to get a list of all processes that were running on the computer
    (in case some of them inhibit the installation. most of them don't mean anything to me, even when they are given a description by the windows 7 Task Manager Processes List - I have pasted the text file below in this post, since I couldnt see how to attach files.)
    thank you for your help,

  • MSI installer not working MSI 5.0 Windows 7

    Hello I am trying to get MSI installer to work and when I go to install anything that has the Windows Installer Package it opens Notepad in a scrambled message. I have tried numerous avenues to no avail (regedit,copy paste regedit, troubleshooters, sfc/scannow,
    command prompt etc.) I tried to choose the file association of MSIexec in System32 and it just opens this 
    I have tried what is suggested in this forum
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/f699e632-54ba-443b-85df-269a7fd6cf1a/windows-installer-not-working?forum=w7itprogeneral and regedit says:
    I have tried this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2438651#reso1 and didn't work
    I have tried changing C :\Windows\System32\msiexec.exe /V in regedit and that didn't work
    I have searched event viewer and all that's in there is a warning and information of successful installs and uninstalls.
    I have tried %windir%\system32\msi.dll version in Command prompt and it says that the system cannot execute the specified program
    I am thinking it is just a matter of finding the correct file association that the windows installer can use to install that program but I am unable to find that! 
    I did a system restore but the only good restore was from earlier today and it still just opens notepad. before I did the restore I went into services and the computer couldn't find the file (windows installer) so I did a restore and now it at least sees
    the file and I can start the service.
    Can I please get some help fixing this? would uninstalling MSI and re-installing it work? I have been searching forum after forum and nothing has yet worked.
    I did a clean install of windows a couple of weeks ago
    Microsoft answers gives me thee worst answers a person could come up with.

    Hi ingenuities, 
    Try importing these reg file under Safe mode.
    If you really need this work, I am supposing the only way is to try importing them manually, if any value key is using by process, use process monitor to filter out these processes and shut them down.I monitored values under MSI.package seems like no
    value was using by system.
    I exported msi.package and patch to text, it is from a clean Windows 7 intallation。

  • I have upgraded firefox 4 to firefox 5 but it does not work with real player record plugin 14.0.3......so I want to revert the upgrade to 4....please give me solution or firefox 4

    Question
    I have upgraded firefox 4 to firefox 5 but it does not work with real player record plugin 14.0.3......so I want to revert the upgrade to 4....please give me solution or firefox 4

    Go to your actual realplayer (program), click the top right button (Realplayer with an downwards arrow) and update your software. Make sure Firefox is closed while you do this.

  • I downloaded firefox 4 and it will not work on my Mac OSX4.11

    I downloaded firefox 4 and it will not work on my Mac OSX4.11.

    Very weird day in Firefoxland
    First on a Powerbook G4 running 10.4.11 I respond to an invitation to upgrade to Firefox 4 (like a lot of others). Long story short, I wind up losing the browser altogether -- including all bookmarks. Why? Because neither the Firefox homepage (or CNET downloads) makes it clear that 4.0 is for OS 10.5 only! Amazing!
    Then I try to register to post a reply in a thread that crits Firefox for not making this System Requirements info upfront clear. But the Register page I’m taken to (https://support.mozilla.com/bs/users/register) is in SERBO-CROATIAN!!
    Then I try to log into Chat a couple of times and when it’s not CLOSED its a long line waiting and THEN it closes.
    WOW!! Are the wheels off the wagon here or what!?!

  • Internet Explorer, Chrome, or Firefox are not working in Windows 8

    Internet Explorer, Chrome, or Firefox are not working in Windows 8

    I found this on another forum and it worked for me.
    This problem usually has to do with TCP/IP or Winsock requiring a reset.
    Winsock entries tells Windows 7 how to access your network services. Additionally, your TCP/IP protocol can
    be corrupted. The TCP/IP protocol is a stack of 4 layers that includes several transport layers, but when this stack is corrupt you will constantly have connectivity issues.
    You need Admin access to enter the codes below. Windows button + x, then choose Command Prompt (Admin)
    netsh winsock reset catalog (reset winsock entries)
    netsh int ip reset reset.log hit (reset TCP/IP stack)
    You may have to reinstall Chrome and Firefox or reboot to have the chnage take place.
    Hi,
    This seems to be the only solution to my problem, however this is temporary. Any advice on a more permanent resolution?
    I have also tried  to disable  "Automatically detect settings" under: "Internet Options/Connections/LAN settings/Automatically
    detect settings".
    This has no affect.
    Thanks,

  • Mac Os X lion installation not working.

    os x lion installation not working, when the installation bar comes to 99% a pop up widow tells me that the installation has failed and the file could be damaged or something. But i just downloaded it from appstore. Any ideas?

    Here's an update on my problem:
    Called Apple Support the other day. They basically told me that they can't help, because this is a problem of misconfiguration and that those kinda things weren't covered. Still the person on the line gave me a hint, I should look for leftovers of previously installed software in /Library/LaunchDaemons/ and /Library/LaunchAgents/ .
    Well, that did the trick. In one of the folders I found "net.shrew.iked.plist". This file obvioulsy belongs to the ShrewSoft VPN client. I removed it and the built-in client works again.
    I reinstalled ShrewSoft one more time to see if it works without the mentioned plist-file...needless to say it wouldn't connect anymore, but that's alright with me - for now.

  • T43 Touch Pad not working after Window 7 installation.

    The Touch Pad on my T43 is not working with Window 7. I have tried several drivers without success; any suggestions??
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Did you try to install system update 4.0 to get all the correct drivers?
    You can also enable/disable the touchpad in BIOS so you could doublecheck it's actually enabled. You can also enable/disable touchpad by going into the control panel, mouse and the Ultranav tab if you have the correct driver installed. Another options is to press Fn-F8 to enable/disable touchpad, but this one also require some drivers and software from Lenovo to work.

  • APPLE mouse & keyboard not working with Windows (Bootcamp)

    I installed Leopard and Windows XP on my Mac Pro. The installation went very smoothly. Only problem I have is that my Apple wireless keyboard and mouse do not work on Windows (frozen) although they work fine on Leopard. I tried a Logitech wireless trackball and it works fine on both Windows and Leopard. Any suggestion?

    Thanks. I upgraded from Tiger and downloaded Bootcamp from Leopard Installation disc ( I did not have a beta version ). I then installed Windows XP SP2 ( brand new, just bought for that purpose ). Wonder if Mac wireless keyboard and mouse are compatible with Window. Everything else work beyond my expectation.
