How to Uninstall firefox 3.6.25 with Firefox 25.01 is installed?
I found the 3.6.25 version under the startup menu and cannot figure out how to uninstall it. it is not in the control panel add/remove, only one from add/remove is version 25 and I dont want that removed. i have even gone into regedit but no uninstall was found for that version which makes me more uncomfortable. I need help, Thanks!
OS: Windows XP 64bit
Is that really a Firefox 3.6.25 version or is only the user agent corrupted?
You can check the real version in the Help > About window.

You can check for problems caused by a possibly corrupted user agent, see:

How to uninstall Firefox 4.0.1 still on my computer
It is taking up space on my computer but I have updated to Firefox 6.0.1 or whatever the newest version is.. I am confused on how to uninstall can you please help with this Thanks
As a workaround, you could open PDFs in the Adobe Reader application rather than in the plugin. To try this:
In Adobe Reader, open Edit > Preferences
In the left column, choose Internet
In the right pane, ''uncheck'' "Display PDF in browser"
If you have the full version of Acrobat, make the same change there. -
I updated to Yosemite on my iMac. Firefox then began to freeze. I uninstalled Firefox and then downloaded/installed it again. It's possible I uninstalled everything Mozilla related. I'm not sure. How do I recover bookmarks, passwords, etc? I don't believe I previously had a username & password for Mozilla. I do have my Mac backed up in Time machine and also a Carbon Copy Clone.
Also, I was able to migrate setting from Safari. Perhaps I don't want some of that stuff? Looking at the list of installed plugins, I have no clue if they're standard Apple/Mozilla stuff, or if they were selected by me/my family earlier in Safari? Are any of them a threat to my online security?
Any detailed instruction would be most appreciated. I'm not much of a tech guy.
Thanks.See:

You will have to find your previously used profile folder in the Time machine or other backup and restore the wanted files to the current profile folder.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

I need to reinstall the game for it to work, but I can't figure out how to uninstall the game to begin with. I know that in Windows, there is an "Uninstall" option, but I have found no such option on the Macbook.
This is one OS X's few weak spots. For most software, it is sufficient to drag the application out of the Applications folder and into the trash. Of course, this does not delete its preference files, etc, but these are usually pretty small, and can either be left in place or deleted separately.
Some software might ship with a separate uninstaller utility that you can run. Sometimes, the package installer can also perform uninstalling, too.
You can buy general purpose uninstaller utilities, but as far as I know they won't work for software already installed; only for software installed once the uninstaller is in place.
Perhaps the safest option is to contact the company that made the game and ask them how it should be uninstalled.

Where is the webpage that tells you how to uninstall Firefox on the Mac?
I installed FF 4 on my Mac just to discover that I could not run Google Gears on it. So I need to uninstall FF4 and install FF 3.6. I searched for a page and to tell me how to do this an found one at http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Uninstalling%20Firefox. After doing part of the process and removing FF4 but not the profile I went back to this page in Safari. But not the instructions change and it is telling me how to uninstall on a PC. So how do I find the Mac uninstall page when FF is not installed on my Mac.
It goes by you useragent to tey and serve a page based on it. To get another OS or Firefox version just look at the right of articles where it says '''Help with:''' and click on the OS and Firefox to change accordingly.
I use Firefox on Linux so it serves me a page for Linux users yet I may want to sometimes change it for Windows when helping Windows users. -

How to uninstall Firefox when it still says it's running
I have checked all the troubleshooting suggestions to get Firefox running correctly again. Finally decided I just need to completely remove it and download a fresh copy.
Problem is when I try to uninstall the program it tells me "Firefox must be closed to proceed with the uninstall, please close firefox to continue."
I have, it's not showing up in any of the processes that are running. Any advice?Hello<!-- XXX you may wish to edit this greeting, and other parts of the response so that it is personalised to the question asked.-->,
Upgrate to latest version....beta 34.0.5...
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 [https://www.mozilla.org mozilla.org] (or choose the download for your operating system and language from [https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ this page]) and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (or open the Firefox menu [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click the close button [[Image:Close 29]]).
#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.
More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [[Troubleshoot and diagnose Firefox problems#w_5-reinstall-firefox|here]].
<b>WARNING:</b> Do not use a third party uninstaller as part of this process. Doing so could permanently delete your [[Profiles|Firefox profile]] data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be easily recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u> See [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]. <!-- Starting in Firefox 31, the Firefox uninstaller no longer lets you remove user profile data.Ref: Bug 432017 and https://support.mozilla.org/kb/uninstall-firefox-from-your-computer/discuss/5279 [Fx31] Windows uninstaller will no longer offer the option to remove personal data -->

How do I uninstall Firefox Beta and re-install Firefox NOT-Beta, and save all of my bookmarks?
The constant updates associated with being a beta user are getting really annoying, and I want to opt out. Is it as easy as uninstalling, downloading the latest update of regular Firefox? Will all of my bookmarks and settings be saved?
Yes, you can uninstall the Firefox beta release and install the full version of the current Firefox 9.0.1 to change the update channel from beta to release.<br />
Firefox 10 will be released at the end of this month.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data because all profile folders will be removed.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 9.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a (re)install, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

While on Firefox browser, the MouseControl add-on prevented me to open my yahoo mail and access buttons and tabs and keyboard functions on some pages. When clicked on certain button/box, nothing is recognized. I can't disable or remove this add-on, because I can't click on the 'disable' nor 'remove' buttons; the command is not recognized! I decided to uninstall Firefox 4. When re-install Firefox 4, the MouseControl Add-on was not removed and all the problems are still there.
Hi so sorry about this problem. There was a warning (for unexpected behavior) when changing the button configuration but I agree that's not an excuse. Please uninstall it by restarting your browser in safe mode. Use the keyboard press Alt+H, this opens the help menu, use your arrow keys to move down to "Restart with addons disabled", then uninstall it from there, also please check out v1.5, this version resolves this stuck mouse issue.
Again very sorry about this. -
I have done everything your web site says to do to uninstall Firefox. Nothing works. Windows message says no Mozilla Firefox uninstall program on my computer. Do I need a special download from you to uninstall?
Struggling with this issue, I'm surprised by the absence of an uninstaller.
Have tried all the suggested steps and nothing worked. It is frustrating.
My reaction is "never again". Once I get this program off my system, I'll
stay away from Mozilla.

Since I must stick with my OS X 10.5.8, should I uninstall Firefox 16 and re-install Firefox 15.0.1?
Or, since both have security problems for OS 10.5.8 that Apple refuse to acknowledge (their way of forcing us to upgrade - very Microsoft-esque!), should I just switch to Safari or Chrome, both of which I hate. I really want to stay with Firefox. How much of a security risk is it? For comparison purposes, how much would the upgrade to 10.8 cost in the US (I live in Ireland), please?
All and any help would be much appreciated - thanking you in advance.Hi fnibhriain
Do NOT uninstall 16.0 because it is the latest compatible for your 10.5 mac
see: [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/16.0/system-requirements/ Firefox 16 System Requirements]
[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-no-longer-works-mac-os-x-10-5 Firefox no longer works with Mac OS X 10.5]
the upgrade from 10.5 to 10.8 the cost is 45-50 dollars see why:

How to uninstall Firefox if Add/Remove programs won't work?
My Firefox is completely unresponsive. I can't get a browser or anything. I just grabbed the application folder and threw it in the trash, because the add/remove program function did nothing.

When I open Firefox or open a new tab, I get Firefox TV! http://www.outfox.tv/?referid=130
How do I get rid of it! The Firefox TV "Uninstall does nothing and there is no application under Control Panel for removing applications. It refers you to a uninstaller link which Norton blocks! http://www.outfox.tv/OutfoxTVRemover.exe
I really, really really hate this POS!
Any help is much appreciated.There are other things that need your attention.
Your System Details list shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize prefs each time Firefox starts.
The user.js file is only present if you or other software has created this file and normally it wouldn't be there.
You can check its content with a plain text editor (right-click: Open with) if you didn't create this file yourself.
The user.js file is read each time Firefox is started and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session.
Delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
