I want to uninstall firefox 4!

I want to uninstall Firefox 4!
HOW DO I UNINSTALL FIREFOX 4??
I HAVE THE OLDER VERSION AND I LIKE IT BETTER.

To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4 ([https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+Firefox]), but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.

  • I want to uninstall firefox in Windows 7

    I used install/uninstall in Windows 7, but it did not work.Foxfire has become my default broswer without my permission and has removed my home pages in other brosers. I want to uninstall Foxfire.

    To uninstall Firefox, try '''helper.exe''' in this folder:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall
    To make IE your default browser (from inside IE):
    Tools > Internet Options > Programs tab > "Make Default" button

  • I want to uninstall firefox but it tells me i need to close it i have checked on taskl manager and firefox does not show as being open. I have Windows 7 OS

    I have Windows 7 OS on my desktop. I had trouble with IE9 loading a shoutbox in a Carers Forum I belong to. I loaded Firefox and it allowed me to use the shoutbox okay. But when I tried to access the games aracade it told I needed to download Adobe Flashplayer (the games play okay on IE9). I tried to download Adobe Flashplayer and it downloaded halfway, then told me I needed to close Firefox for the download to continue. I have made sure that it was closed by checking Task Manager to see which applciations were open. I get the same message if I try to download using IE9. I have tried to uninstall Firefox using Control Panel, but I get the same message saying I need to close Firefox... again i checked Task manager but it says it is not running.

    In Setttings - Mail, Contacts, Calendars select your MobileMe account. Make sure Find My iPad is turned on.

  • I want to uninstall firefox and re-install it with no bookmarks pre-loaded

    What it says on the tin, basically. I want to reinstall Firefox as if its the very first time I'm installing it, like it has to ask me if I want to import any bookmarks. Is that possible, or do I have to manually delete all of my bookmarks?

    You can delete the places.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder and also all JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups folder if you want to remove all current bookmarks.
    If you want to reset all Firefox data then you can use the Profile Manager to delete the current profile folder and all files in it and create a new profile.
    A Firefox reset will still preserve some data including bookmarks, so that wouldn't work for you.
    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    To make Firefox ask to import data from other browsers you would have to delete the profiles.ini file, that registers all present profiles, in the parent location of the profile folder.
    You can import bookmarks manually in the Bookmarks Manager (Library).

  • I want to uninstall Firefox and again I want to Install it, but without missing my History, favourite, Bookmark, etc. How can I do it?

    Either I do have missing some bar or i am not getting the proper setting on my windows of fire fox. But really I want to say that I don't like my present screen of fire fox.

  • Your screen magnifies beyond the xapacity of the viewing screen. I want to uninstall firefox totally.

    Only on firefox in my yahoo account does the magnification exceed the viewing screen. This is a nuisance. I want to read the screen in one shot not have to keep scrolling right. How do I reduce the magnification on firefox. This does not happen on internet explorer only firefox.

    It took more fanagling than just that. I used the keyboard and fidgeted around a bit but eventually that solved the problem. Why isn't there just a tutorial tab on the toolbar for these issues? I have been so frustrated for months when all of a sudden my own zoom button on the computer ONLY in FIREFOX everything was magnified. I have to use FIREFOX for my online classrooms and wonder just how many other students/professors have been so frustrated with such a simple solutioon.

  • I like Firefox but I also like my friends in POGO & I can't talk with right now because of Firefox. I don't want to uninstall Firefox but I don't want to lose my friends . HOW soon are YOU going to remedy the problem? Or do WE ALL uninstall Firefox?

    Pogo suggests we re-install the prior version of Firefox.

    See if the 3.6.15 update fixes that Pogo problem.
    Use '''Help > Check for Updates''' to manually trigger an update query, then install the update.

  • I was infected with Malware. I wanted to uninstall Firefox and reinstall. I did, but after the reinstall, the bookmarks, everything was still there.

    How can I ensure a clean install?

    Follow the removal instructions that '''ideato''' hyperlinked. Not everything that Trovi installed on your PC resides within Firefox folders; sometimes garbage like that goes so far as to infect the Registry and if you don't get rid of it all it will just reinstall itself into Firefox all over again on launch.
    MalwareTips.con is one of the best and most consistently correct websites I have found for dealing with Malware, ''as linked by ideato''.

  • I have Firefox 3.6.8 and want to uninstall it and then reinstall it because of a problem. Where is my Bookmark file kept because I don't want to lose it and won't uninstall until I find where it is filed. Please help me.....Thanks John

    I want to uninstall Firefox 3.6.8 because of a problem I am having and then once I do that I will reinstall it. My problem is I don't want to lose my Bookmarks. Can someone please tell me where they are filed so I can make a backup copy before I do any uninstalling. Thanks, John

    Bookmarks and other personal data are located in your Profile folder. See:<br />

  • How do I uninstall firefox 4 and get back to firefox 3.6.13?

    I installed firefox 4 to play applications in Face Book. It keeps crashing. I never had this problem with firefox 3.6.13. I can't get any help why firefox 4 keeps crashing in the middle of the games, this happens constantly. So now I want to uninstall firefox 4 and reinstall firefox 3.6.13 until I can figure out why firefox 4 keeps crashing all the time. When it crashes, it always says application did not leave a crash dump report or something to that affect. So, if someone could please tell me how to uninstall firefox 4 and reinstall firefox 3.6.13, I would be grateful. But I'd also like to get some answers as to why firefox 4 keeps crashing constantly. I've been at this for over a week now, and can't any answers. The stock questions and replies I read are no help what so ever.
    Thanks. I would appreciate if someone would email the answer or reply. [email protected] Every time I look for my questions that I have asked, I can't find them!! So I can't tell if anyone has replied or answered my questions anyway. So, if someone would email I would again appreciate it. Again, my email address is: [email protected] Thanks.
    The Box containing "This happened" I put Every time Firefox opened because the ones do not apply. But it doesn't happen everytime firefox opens, just when I'm playing in my games in Face Book, sometimes as soon as I load a game, sometimes in the of the game, and mostly when I visit neighbors.

    For uninstalling Firefox 4 see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+Firefox
    Make sure you do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data" as that option will delete all of your bookmarks, passwords etc.
    You can re-install Firefox 3.6.15 from http://www.mozilla.com though judging by your user agent string you still have 3.6.15 installed.

    Are you unhappy with Firefox, or installing a different version?

  • How do I uninstall Firefox from my Mac?

    I downloaded Firefox to my Mac OS X 10.7.2 when a script I wanted to install wasn't compatible with Safari. However, now i want to uninstall Firefox, but when I drag it to the trash and try to delete it, a window pops up that says it can't be deleted because "the program is in use". Does anyone know how to fix this, or another way to uninstall Firefox?
    Thanks, Jamie

    As stated above you need to quit Firefox and then you can empty the trash with it in there (or relaunch finder or reboot will also quit FF of course).
    Note, if you want to remove all of the stuff FF installs then in addition to the app there are the following in your home directory:
    ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox
    ~/Library/Preferences/org.mozilla.firefox.plist
