How does one install Firefox on Windows 7 for just one user, so separate users can have completely independent Firefox installations?

I'd like to create a new user, and install firefox for that user completely separate in all respects from the existing user's installation, so that there is no interaction at all between the two installations, with separate copies of the program files as well as separate Firefox profiles.

I was asking about how to have multiple Windows user accounts, and how to install Firefox independently for different Windows user accounts.
Firefox does not ask if you want to install it for everyone or just the current user, unlike many programs.
I tried switching to the newly created Windows user account, which was able to use the Firefox installed by the other user account, and installing Firefox, and although there's no indication that it's installing a user specific copy of Firefox, it is. Now the original user account sees it's installation of Firefox and the second user account sees it's installation of Firefox and no longer runs the first users installation of Firefox.
Creating separate Firefox profiles is what I was trying to say I didn't want to do. That's why I mentioned wanting completely separate copies of the program files, not one copy of the program files running two instances simultaneously.

  • How do I make a transpose button for just one instrument in a split? (mainstage)

    I work in mainstage 2.2.2 with patches using splits and I want to make an octave button for just one instruments in a patch. Suggestions?
    Benny

    Depending on your virtual instrument you can assign octave to a MIDI control. If you assign all of them to the same control on every track then that would be the effect, but like I said before, it really depends on which instruments you use.

  • No formatting/css for just ONE site I go to. How to fix this?

    I was watching videos on www.56.com last night. Everything was fine until all of a sudden I clicked on another video link and the page that was displayed lost all of it's formatting and CSS. I had been clicking on video links before that to watch videos and there wasn't a problem then then. Now, I just got a one column list of links. Videos and the structure of the site have completely disappeared no matter what video link I click on.
    I have a MAC so have tried reloading the page, using the Command+Shift+R as well as restarting FF in safe mode to make sure it wasn't an add on or plug in issue. I have also reset firefox, cleared my cache, cleared recent history (setting is "everything" and I cleared cookies, cache), made sure images have been allowed on that website but still the problem persists.
    I did try to open the website on another browser and that works so I know the issue is with FF. But I don't know how the issue came about since I didn't do any updates or anything and one minute everything was fine and the next minute all formatting was lost.
    Any suggestions on what I can do?

  • How do I install Bootcamp on Windows 7.

    I have just installed Windows 7 on my Mac Mini and now I want to switch back to the Mac OS. When I hold down Alt while booting up to change OS nothing happens.
    The other option is to install Bootcamp to work with windows. It's already on my mac as I used it to install Windows 7. But there is no option to switch OS with Bootcamp as I can't find it on Windows 7. I've seen tutorials on how to install it with a disk but the Mac mini has no optical drive.
    How do I install Bootcamp on Windows??

    At first I was under the impression i had accidentily deleted the MAC OS but thankfully I haven't. I did a system restore on Windows and when it restarted I held Alt and I could select my OS.
    But I still don't have the shortcut to bootcamp showing in windows. How do you make a bootable USB for Bootcamp?

  • I can not create an Installer, After install the Vision Builder Demo and then uninstall it. I can not create a Labview installer anymore, it asks me for a Vision Builder Installer, even if My Labview program does not have nothing to do with it...

    I can not create an Installer on LabView, After install the Vision Builder Demo and then uninstall it. I can not create a Labview installer anymore, it asks me for a Vision Builder Installer, even if My Labview program does not have nothing to do with it...
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

     Hi Shada this can happen if you are including additional installers to your installer for example DAQmx. When you are doing this the installer has to include other files like MAX (Measuremente and Automation Explorer). Probably when you installed Vision Builder it updated MAX, so when your installer is trying to Include MAX, its asking for the source where it was installed in your computer in this case Vision Builder.
     Here you can cache the information so its not asked again, or you can download a newer version fo DAQmx, so it will update MAX and change de dependecy.
     You can find more details about this issue in this KB:

  • How could I install a plug in for Aperture?

    how could I install a plug in for Aperture?

    OK no installer, not nice but not fatal.
    I assume you already downloaded the file from the web site. Locate it in the Download folder and double click it. That will extract the plug-in from the zip file.
    Now the tricky bit. The Library folder in your Home folder is no longer visible in Lion (thanks Apple ) There are ways around this the easiest is to open Finder hold down the option key and select Go from the menu bar. Your Library folder will be visible in the list of folders shown. Select it.
    You are now in the Library folder, select the Application Support folder and then select the Aperture folder.  If you have no other plug-ins installed you will need to create the Plug-Ins folder, do that. In the Plug-Ins folder create the Export folder. That is where you will copy the plug-in to.
    So open another Finder window locate the plug-in you extracted from the zip file and drag it to the Export folder. Restart Aperture and the plug-in should be visible in Aperture.
    Good luck.

    How can I turn off imessage for just one of my contacts? Me and my husband just upgraded (both had iphone 4), I got the iphone 5s and he got he note 3. All my text to him automatically send as a imessage. Ive tried to delete his contact and then went back in and reentered it but that doesnt work.

    Have your husband text the word "stop" to 48369. This should take his number out of the iMessage system.
    Go into your settings under messaging and make sure the box to send as an SMS if iMessage is unavailable is checked.
    Hopefully this will get your messages sending/receiving to each other.

    Have tried: download but do not install iTunes, then turn off virus protection and firewall, restart computer, login as admin, then run the iTunes insallation.  After it installs, restart virus protection and firewall and logout and back in as standard user.
    Windows leaves installers running or still resident which conflict with the iTunes installer.
