jalaffa Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Firefox is the award winning next generation browser from Mozilla. Firefox empowers you to browse faster, more safely, and more efficiently than with any other browser. Make the switch today - Firefox imports your Favorites, settings and other information, so you have nothing to lose. Stop annoying popup ads in their tracks with Firefox's built in popup blocker. View more than one web page in a single window with this time saving feature. Open links in the background so that they're ready for viewing when you're ready to read them. Built with your security in mind, Firefox keeps your computer safe from malicious spyware by not loading harmful ActiveX controls. A comprehensive set of privacy tools keep your online activity your business.Thanks to vissha for the update.Download Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vakdan Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 For those who are using the 32bit version, just install the 64bit version, open it so that it's using your profile and then uninstall normally the 32bit version, your settings, addons, etc. will be retained.

BALTAGY Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 If you have 32Bit installed you can uninstall it Firefox will not remove the profile and install the 64Bit after it will read all settings and bookmarks but just in case use MozBackup before the uninstall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOQUILLO Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 The 64bits installer must to install in C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox on Windows 7 x64, but it isn't why the default path for this Firefox x64 iinstallation is C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox.Then what it is a x86 or x64 binary?

It might install in both places for support for x86 and x64.I think due to naming issues with 32bit and 64bit installation files, you might be trying to install 32bit instead of 64bit.Please check the image in this post heading - Special Case: Firefox 32-bit to 64-bit.

dcs18 Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Chrome x64 also installs on C:\Program Files (x86)\GoogleSome 64-bit programs do install at the Program Files (x86) directory if the 32-bit entries are encountered at the registry — not a healthy sign, though. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvidal Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 I second the naming thing. Installer should be called Firefox 42.0 Setup-x64.exe. Too much to ask?On the other hand, it's working fine. It was the forum that had a slowdown the very second I was trying FF x64.Oh, and about the installation location, FF x64 installed where it should (i.e. c:\program files).

Kalju Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Do not make a panic. Something does not need to uninstall and no reboot is not required.Apart from this - you do not have to install Firefox x64 to default plase, ie to% ProgramFiles%\Mozilla FirefoxYou can install whereever You want. Also in the same place, where was Firefox x86, ie to location%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Mozilla Firefoxor where ever You want.You can also use both, ie FF 32-bit and FF 64-bit. In case you want to use them at the same time (simultaneously), you must create a new profile for x64.Firefox never need to uninstall, because Firefox is a completely self-contained. Just delete the whole old folder (better - shred or wipe) and clean the registry - CCleaner is quite sufficient for this purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrKash Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 If you have x64 ,it's better to uninstall Firefoxx32 and install a clean x64 version :) . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mp3it Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Removed Waterfox and deleted folderInstalled FF x64 and ran CCleanerRebootedCannot open any google pages including search, maps and youtubeAlso he search box at the top doesn't work (default search is google)Getting same error on all therse pagesThis Connection is UntrustedYou have asked Firefox to connect securely to www.google.ca, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure.Normally, when you try to connect securely, sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified.What Should I Do?If you usually connect to this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue.This site uses HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) to specify that Firefox only connect to it securely. As a result, it is not possible to add an exception for this certificate.Also Pages on Yahoo are not rendering properly.Other HTTPS pages are loading okNot impressed with FF 64 bit so farAny one else having issues like this?

Kalju Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 If it is so, then something must be wrong with your system or with settings.Sometimes it happens if Firefox User Data (profile) has been damaged. Then helps if you delete all except the Bookmarks.Firefox does not need to be reinstalled, about it does not depend on anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvidal Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Oh, and BTW, there's an EME (a.k.a DRM)-Free version of FF available. Get that if you don't want the adobe DRM plugin on your system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
